{{3.
What is the nature and description of the request?}}

Re-add a way for customers to script the upload of sos reports.

{{4. Why does the customer need this? (List
the business requirements here)}}

Customer wants to script the upload of sos reports – something he can run and not have to interact with.  With the SOSUPLOADUSER and SOSUPLOADPASSWORD shell environment variables now being deprecated and the requirement to now visit a sso.redhat.com URL after a sos report has been created, such automation is now impossible.

{{5. How would the customer like to achieve
this? (List the functional requirements here)}}

The customer recommended being able to pre-authenticate to sso.redhat.com before the 'sos report' command is run.

Another method might be to bring back the SOSUPLOADUSER and SOSUPLOADPASSWORD shell environment variables.

{{6. For each functional requirement listed,
specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the
requirement is successfully implemented.}}

{{{}Run the
‘sos report --upload --case-id=########’ command{}}}.

{{7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream
or in Red Hat Bugzilla?}}

{{Not
that I could find.}}

{{8. Does the customer have any specific
timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target
(i.e. RHEL8, RHEL9)?}}

{{Although
RHEL 8 is near the end of its full support phase, the customer would
like to see this ability added back to it.}}

{{9. Is the sales team involved in this
request and do they have any additional input?}}

No.

{{10. List any affected packages or
components.}}

sos

{{11. Would the customer be able to assist in
testing this functionality if implemented?}}

Yes!
