Kafka Target

Authentication

Where SASL is used, it may be enabled via the enable_sasl, sasl_username, and sasl_password and sasl_algorithm options.

we recommend using environment variables for sensitive values - which can be done via HCL's native env.MY_ENV_VAR format (as seen below).

TLS may be configured by providing the key_file, cert_file and ca_file options with paths to the relevant TLS files.
