Hashing/scrambling

Comments

  • Hi,

    What would be the best way to go about hashing / scrambling a string and unscrambling it on the way back?

    I noticed a Hash SHA 512 step, but not one that would decode it on the way back.

    The use case is that Decisions is making a call to an external system with an encoded / hashed string. That system will later make a call to Decisions, and we need to be able to decode the string.

  • Hello Peanut,

    Hashing is not meant to be unscrambled. Any proper hashing algorithm would be impossible (or very difficult) to unscramble. For example, you might store a users password in its hashed form. To check if that persons password is correct, you would hash their input and compare it to the hashed password you have stored.

    If you need the string to be encrypted and decrypted then I suggest installing the PGP Module.
