How to filter for a specific asset/account in the get-A2A-password.sh

[sgundlach3]

Hi.
I have a customer that is trying to credential retrieval via bash for a certificate user that has 48 accounts, and only wants the pw for one assetaccount.

In Powershell, you are able to filter to select the asset/account:
“$myapikey = $myAvailableAccts | where {(($.assetname -eq $mysystem) -and ($.Accountname -eq $myaccount))} | % APIKey”

The customer want sto know how can they handle the same in bash script.

Sorry I am not a bash expert-- hopefully this is an easy question. We checked the other A2A shell scripts and they all use an API key for the specific account. What is needed is a script or additional commands to request the API key for the specific asset/account, so that API key can be passed to get-A2A-password.sh

You can use the https://github.com/OneIdentity/safeguard-bash/blob/master/src/get-a2a-retrievable-account.sh script if you have A2A registration visible to certificate users:

By default, the get-a2a-retrievable-account.sh script will get all accounts available using that credential, but you should be able to filter the results from there. We could take an enhancement to allow searching for a specific account.
