It would be nice to protect passwords during the build of a process without the need of decrypting.
workflow:
create variable with new property “hidden”.
add a value to the property at development-time (textbox shows ****)
the process itself can read the value,
but the modurator can not check that value in the WATCH or the LOG.
The value must also be encrypted in the XML source file.
Or you create an object specific for passwords.
Is al of this possible ?
Hi Christophe,
A lot of actions do their own encryption/decryption of passwords, and the actions are careful not to log the values in the log (instead they will put *'s usually).
There is also a “Prompt for Password” action which will let you prompt the user for a password without it being displayed on the screen.
You can also use script to encrypt and decrypt strings - in the script editor have a look at the functions EncryptString and DecryptString
