I think we can, but first I want to ask, would passing the credentials as pipeline parameters expose them to be intercepted by unwanted parties?

I think I missed something. Why move the credentials to pipeline parameters when you can just use account.username and account.password?
I’m wondering the same thing. I also wonder if maybe I just need to delete that account and recreate it?
Are you saying that you got it working by removing the account from the snap and replacing account.username and account.password with pipeline parameters in your HTTP Entity expression?
If that’s the case, it means the server is rejecting the request because of the Authorization header added by the account. So that does leave you in a tough spot, since the only way to keep the password secure is by using an account.
Let’s test that theory: Add an Authorization header to the version that works, to see if it breaks.
