Custom Launcher Process Arguments

You are viewing documentation for an older version of Secret Server. If you are using Secret Server Cloud visit the current version of this documentation here. If you are using Secret Server On-Premises choose the version that matches yours from this list.
For release dates, end-of-support timelines, and upgrade guidance, see the Secret Server Product Lifecycle page.

Custom launcher process arguments can use a combination of parameters from:

  • A field value from the secret.
  • A field value from a linked secret.
  • User input obtained from a prompt prior to launching.
  • $Host and $Port (for use with a proxied SSH process or SSH tunneling)
For more information, see the Dependency Token List.

Syntax

Parameters are prefixed with a dollar sign $. To obtain a value from the secret being launched, use $FieldName. To obtain a value from a prompt, use $PromptName. To obtain a value from a linked secret being launched, use $[n]$FieldName (where n represents the nth linked secret). Linked secrets can be configured in the Launcher tab.

Examples

-user $UserName -color $[1]$Color -Location $LocationPrompt

-ssh $UserName@$Host -pw $Password -P $Port
