    Description

      Summary:
      If users have a requirement to step up webhook integration where the authentication should be set via URL, it can achieved by following method

      https://USERNAME:PASSWORD@<URL of destination server>
      

      The username and password sent through URL will be plain texts and we do not have a method to mask them. It will be good to have variable masking strategy here where users can pass $USERNAME and $PASSWORD as variables and mask them so that they are secure.

      Workaround:
      To use webhook secrets as an alternative
