How to use masked constant strings in flow?
Comments

Hi,
How do I use a system constant (System > Designers > Lookup Lists and Constants) that is stored as a masked string (i.e. database connection string)? What’s the best way to decrypt and use the string?
Thanks

Hi,
Flow data "database connection string system constant" is not decrypted to the flow engine. Connection strings are masked to prevent sensitive information like DB passwords from appearing in the Studio UI.
As a workaround, if you know your database folder name you can use Fetch Entities step to fetch database connection strings and use them in your flows. Please check the attached screenshots for reference.
