You can configure Redis authentication in Superset by setting the username and password in your Redis connection settings. For most deployments, you can use environment variables or configuration files.

If you are using the Helm chart, set the following environment variables: REDIS_USER for the username and REDIS_PASSWORD for the password. The connection string will look like this:
redis://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<db>
See details here.

For direct configuration in Superset (for example, with async queries or caching), you can use the CACHE_REDIS_USER and CACHE_REDIS_PASSWORD parameters in your config file:

GLOBAL_ASYNC_QUERIES_CACHE_BACKEND = {
    "CACHE_TYPE": "RedisCache",
    "CACHE_REDIS_HOST": "your_redis_host",
    "CACHE_REDIS_PORT": 6379,
    "CACHE_REDIS_USER": "your_username",
    "CACHE_REDIS_PASSWORD": "your_password",
    "CACHE_REDIS_DB": 1,
    "CACHE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT": 300,
}

Reference: superset/config.py

If you use a Redis URL (for Celery or other integrations), include the username and password in the URL as per the Redis URI spec:
redis://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<db>

If you only see password support in your environment, make sure your Superset version and Redis client both support ACL (username) authentication, as older setups may only use password.
