I am new to Cyberark password vault. I have a node that has configured certificate based authentication with Cyberark server. If I want to retrieve the password stored on the Cyberark vault using RestAPI from that node how to acheive the same. I don't want to provide password to authenticate again.

It is not recommended to retrieve secrets directly from CyberArk's REST API for programmatic, non-human usage. It is recommended to utilize one of CyberArk's Credential Providers to handle this process for you.

The Credential Providers have different means of allowing your application or script to retrieve the secret Just-in-Time using environment-specific attributes as authentication instead of requiring a secret-zero to retrieve them.

The REST API provided by CyberArk is to be used as a management API and not a secured API for secret retrieval.
