Pretty straightforward. rstudio-server is running at, say http://192.68.0.1:8787. Say the u/p is ruser/12345, is it possible to have this pre-filled from a URL?
I tried:
None of which appear to have worked.
In terms of security concerns, that's being handled upstream since users will have authenticated on VPN & with 2FA to get to this URL in the first place (it's part of a pod being served on JupyterLab).
Users are all told ruser and 12345, it's just a matter of convenience/saving time by having it pre-filled each time they launch the URL. Since the pods die often, there's not much convenience to Stay signed in since that particular rstudio-server process doesn't survive.
This is possible in Jupyter, where part of our Docker setup is to capture the token and pass it in like /?token=... to save users the step of keeping track of and entering a new token each time they launch.
