If seeking higher degrees of automation, I believe you can also use the API
at https://api.gocd.org/current/#encrypt-a-plain-text-value for this,
alongside a personal access token or another credential - but I haven't
personally tried it for this purpose.

I am sure Aravind can correct me if this is for a different purpose and
encrypts differently. :-)
