Password access without list_storage_passwords

Has anyone figured out a way to store passwords for user consumption that does not let them see the value given by list_storage_passwords? I have a use case for a custom command that needs a password. I want to allow non-advanced users access to the command without the ability to read clear passwords.

I'm not sure you'd be able to prevent the user from having the ability to view the secret at *all*, but you can get more granular than just all-or-nothing with `list_storage_passwords`. I just answered a similar question here with some details that might help you out: https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Dev/What-are-secret-storage-permissions-requirements/m-p/6706...
