Authenticated data access using masked credential data

A computing system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, by the processor of an application server and from a client device, a data retrieval request associated with accessing target data stored on a cloud storage platform;
• providing, by the processor, a credential data request associated with the data retrieval request and the cloud storage platform to a credential data management server;
• based on the credential data request, receiving, by the processor, credential data from the credential data management server;
• storing, by the processor, the credential data in a field of a data retrieval script;
• and
• executing, by the processor, the data retrieval script based on the field, wherein executing the data retrieval script comprises establishing an authenticated connection with the cloud storage platform and accessing the target data using the authenticated connection.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, comprising:

• receiving, by the processor of an application server and from a client device, a data retrieval request associated with accessing target data stored on a cloud storage platform;
• providing, by the processor, a credential data request associated with the data retrieval request and the cloud storage platform to a credential data management server;
• based on the credential data request, receiving, by the processor, credential data from the credential data management server;
• storing, by the processor, the credential data in a field of a data retrieval script;
• and
• executing, by the processor, the data retrieval script based on the field, wherein executing the data retrieval script comprises establishing an authenticated connection with the cloud storage platform and accessing the target data using the authenticated connection.
