Password protection for BI Publisher Excel outputs

Summary

Password at report level

Hi Team,

We are in 18C and I have seen an option in BI publisher, Report properties, where we can setup a password for the Excel output.

I tested that and it worked.

The problem is: we would need to release that password to every user who runs that report which does not seems to efficient/safe whatsoever.

Have anyone tested that? Is there any other way to dynamically/run time add/create a password for an Excel output for BI Schedule reports?

Thank you!!!
