Hi, Fortunately, you can't. You can only access/verify a hashed version of the password. Note that asking for a password again is not necessarily a bad UX, especially if it is to allow access to a sensitive area/operation. Cheers, Jerome.

Hello,

i am writing a component that need a password. Because this password will be the same for current user as the one he used to log-in, it would make for crappy interface ot ask it again to user. So i need to know how my component or a groovy script can access the username / password of current logged-in user.

Thank you.
