mssql-scripter --connection-string 'Server=,1433;Initial Catalog=;Persist Security Info=False;User ID=;Password=;MultipleActiveResultSets=False;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;Authentication="Active Directory Password";'

Unfortunately, mssql-scripter does not support active directory password. This is a limitation of the Microsoft/sqltoolsservice which is used by mssql-scripter. We are investigating adding support, however I don't have any timelines currently that I can share for this feature.

Hi. The original issue https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/8807 has been resolved. Is it possible to use AD auth in mssql-scripter ?

Thanks

Any news on this?
