Re: Patch to contribute in pgAdmin to increase the maximum length of the server password

Hi Aditya,

I am part of Adobe Experience Platform - Query Service team. Query Service
uses the Postgres protocol to query data in Platform. We have enabled a
variety of client applications to connect to Query Service like Aqua Data
Studio, Power BI, Tableau. [
https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/experience-platform/query/clients/overview.html
]
Length of the password to connect to query service is more than 1000
characters.
