How to get Dbeaver credentials/password
At the time of writing this is only tested for Dbeaver 21.1.4. Sometimes you may want to obtain database password without nagging your DBA. Here is how. Have openssl command installed/accessible Open your terminal Locate the credentials file (credentials-config.json) Windows: (please comment!) Mac OS: ~/Library/DBeaverData/workspace6/General/.dbeaver/ Linux: ~/.local/share/DBeaverData/workspace6/General/.dbeaver/credentials-config.json (thanks for @ xraya4t comment) Enter this command: openssl aes-128-cbc -d -K babb4a9f774ab853c96c2d653dfe544a -iv 00000000000000000000000000000000 -in credentials-config.json | dd bs=1 skip=16 2>/dev/null And thats it!
