Authenticate using DSE Utilities

Provide credentials for internal or LDAP pass-through authentication when using DataStax Enterprise (DSE) and native utilities to connect to an authentication-enabled cluster:

Provide credentials on the command line
Providing Credentials in a File
Provide credentials using environment variables
Connect to DSE with the CQL shell (cqlsh)

When authorization is also enabled, use the GRANT command to manage access to database objects. See Manage access.

The dse beeline and dse -v utilities don’t require credentials, even if database and Java Management Extensions (JMX) authentication are enabled.
