URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/4935

   ### What would you like to happen?
   
   In Apache Hop, the **Shell Action** allows passing **arguments** to a script.

   However, when arguments are provided, they are **visible in the output**. 
This poses a **security risk**, especially for sensitive data such as **private 
tokens or credentials**.

   **_Requested:_**
   I propose adding an option (either a checkbox or a dropdown menu) to mark 
certain arguments as **hidden**. When enabled, these arguments should not 
appear in the output logs. This would **enhance security** by preventing 
sensitive information from being exposed.

   **Benefits:**
   
   - Improved security by preventing leakage of sensitive data in logs
   - Useful for handling API keys, private tokens, or credentials securely
   
   **NOTE:**
   It would be great if a similar option could also be added to the **Set 
Variables** action/transform, allowing sensitive variables to be hidden from 
logs.
