Answer 1

Try using Input.Password keyword where ever you are entering password Input.Password will not print the password into report.

Refer:https://robotframework.org/SeleniumLibrary/SeleniumLibrary.html#Input%20Password

Answer 2

You can use b64encode to encode the password but you have to provide the real password once to encode it, once it is encrypted you can use it right away

Encrypt the password :

password= abc123
${encryptedPassword}    b64encode    ${password}
log to console  ${encryptedPassword}

Use the Encrypted password

${password} = <Paste The encrypted password here>
${password1}    b64decode  ${password}
input text ${xpath}  ${password1}
