Inject credentials in MLflow URL

[IgnacioHeredia]

We are currently saving MLflow credentials in Vault (in path /services/mlflow/credentials).

It would be nice to inject the username and password when users click in the Experiment tracking link in the left side bar. In this way, users would access directly the MLflow dashboard without having to manually login.

If the user is not logged-in in our Dashboard, or hasn't any secrets saved in /services/mlflow/credentials, then we do not inject anything and they will be shown the standard MLflow login message.

@MartaOB , if you want to add your MLflow credentials to Vault for testing, you need to signup (again) here: https://mlflow.cloud.ai4eosc.eu/signup

I'm tagging @lisanaberberi so that she can track the status of this.

Hi @lisanaberberi :)

I've been looking for information on how to inject credentials into the browser's login prompt, and apparently the browser doesn't allow this for security reasons. Let me know if you know of any workaround.

Hi @MartaOB,

Well, currently seems there's no simple workaround to achieve this, but we are looking and testing another implementation plugin of MLflow where an MLFLOW_TRACKING_TOKEN is used to authenticate API requests.

Perfect @lisanaberberi, let me know when you are done implementing that so I can try it.
