    Hello Rama16,

     

    I agree that the password value should be hidden in the request's properties in Navigator as it's hidden in the other panels. I have registered an issue in the internal DB for this.

     

    As for the fact that the password is stored in the project file as-is, it's the expected default behavior. To protect your sensitive data can either encrypt the whole project or selected properties as it's described in this article: https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/testing/best-practices/secure.html
