A very simple Bash Script (failed one):

sh sectest.sh 6673

#!/usr/bin/bash
curl -ki \
  --cookie cookie-jar.txt \
  --header 'Content-Type: text/xml' \
  --request POST https://ugtestpo:8446/v1/secondarylogin \
  --data '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<p:secondaryloginrequest xmlns:p="http://www.ericsson.com/em/am/co/authentication/v1_0/">
    <credential>
        <secret>"$1"</secret>
        <type>otp</type>
    </credential>
    <channelinformation>COMVIVAAGENTAPP</channelinformation>
</p:secondaryloginrequest>'

HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Date: Wed, 02 Mar 2022 10:47:53 GMT
Content-Type: text/xml;charset=utf-8

Solution

Converting my comment to answer so that solution is easy to find for future visitors.

Following should work for you with proper quoting that allows $1 to expand:

curl -ki \
  --cookie cookie-jar.txt \
  --header 'Content-Type: text/xml' \
  --request POST https://ugtestpo:8446/v1/secondarylogin \
  --data '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<p:secondaryloginrequest xmlns:p="http://www.ericsson.com/em/am/co/authentication/v1_0/">
    <credential>
        <secret>'"$1"'</secret>
        <type>otp</type>
    </credential>
    <channelinformation>COMVIVAAGENTAPP</channelinformation>
</p:secondaryloginrequest>'
