Copying Encrypted Field Value

[vidhya_mouli]

I have a field sn which is encrypted. I want to copy this field value into another form.

This is the Script Include:

var EncryptionUtils = Class.create();
EncryptionUtils.prototype = {
    initialize: function() {
    },

	getDecryptedValue: function(encryptedValue) {
        var encrypter = new GlideEncrypter();
        return encrypter.decrypt(encryptedValue);
    },
	
    type: 'EncryptionUtils'
};

And this is the script (which is part of a UI Action):

	var ga = new GlideAjax('EncryptionUtils');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getDecryptedValue');
	ga.addParam('sysparm_encrypted_value', sn); // Pass the encrypted value to the server
	ga.getXMLAnswer(function(response) {
    var decryptedValue = response;
    // Now you can use the decrypted value as needed
    dialog.setPreference("sysparm_sn", decryptedValue);

However this is not working. Any suggestions on how to make it work?

Hi @vidhya_mouli,

The encrypted fields has two field classes there are password (1  Way Encrypted) and password (2 Way Encrypted)

the  GlideEncrypter() method  won't works for password (2 Way Encrypted) field type. I tried with password (1 Way Encrypted) able to encrypt and decrypt the values stored in this field.
