--------------------------------

Hey NiFi team, is there any update on this request ?

Even we have a use case where the Mongo is set up for user and password based authentication. And we cannot pass password in mongoURL in plain text as this is a security concern.

Even if you can allow the sensitive parameter context to be used in non sensitive fields it will get the job done.

Kindly request you to take up this jira.

In case if there is secure workaround please update me.

> Since the [GetMongo|https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/components/org.apache.nifi/nifi-mongodb-nar/1.5.0/org.apache.nifi.processors.mongodb.GetMongo/] processor {{Mongo URI}} field is not sensitive, it can only reference a non-sensitive parameter but it still just shows the password in plaintext in the UI.  The GetMongo processor should be refactored to have a specific property for the password and it should be marked as sensitive so that it can leverage sensitive parameters.
