Hi,

Here you have a couple of links that explain you how credentials works

https://jenkins.io/doc/book/using/using-credentials/
https://support.cloudbees.com/hc/en-us/articles/203802500-Injecting-Secrets-into-Jenkins-Build-Jobs

Also, I’d recommend to take a look to the documentation https://jenkins.io/doc/book/ and tutorials https://jenkins.io/doc/tutorials/ probably you find useful information

I understand that you want to run the same thing 100 times with different users, or something like that, so you have the easy one that it is to use a credential de type file where you store you current CVS file, in this case it does not change too much you current process, you retrieve the file from credentials and store it on a local file.

Other option is to maintain a set of credentials with some kind if pattern as I'd, in that way you can iterate over the 100 credentials.

Finally, if you have the possibility of use Vault or something like that you can retrieve your user*password from the Vault.

All depends on the level of security you need for those 100 credentials.
