Are you connecting to something?? As you would need a password to connect to something. This info would come with what you are connecting to.

@franz0  The SSID and password is usually  on the back of your router, you may also have a Network card or information in another format.  Information will also be on your router's Admin page (which could differ from default)  It is actually advisable to change these (I have taken the ISP name out of my SSID) see details on how to access here.  https://www.lifewire.com/accessing-your-router-at-home- 

Sometimes you can connect using the WPS option https://techcult.com/how-to-connect-to-wifi-network-using-wps-on-android/ 

if already connected on one device can share  via a QR code , some risks with this approach though https://www.asurion.com/connect/tech-tips/how-to-share-home-network-info-with-qr-code/

@franz0  You should be able to mirror your phone to the Tv via Smart Things.  Once the preferred tv is connected (you will need to allow access)  tap Menu Bar (3 dots)  and Mirror Screen (Smart View) (if Samsung Mobile)  Slightly different for Apple Devices.

More details here : Mirror Screen With Smart View

@franz0: For reference, if you do choose to use your mobile as a mobile hotspot, then please head to Settings > Connections > Mobile hotspot & tethering > Mobile hotspot, and the password will be displayed here. As @JAMES4578 has pointed out, you should utilise SmartThings or Smart View to mirror your phone to a compatible Smart TV.
