What is the replacement of GlideChecksum in scoped applications?

[andriyko]

How can I calculate md5 checksum in ServiceNow?

var chsum = new GlideChecksum("mystring");

gs.info(chsum.getMD5());

GlideChecksum is not allowed in scoped applications

Hi Andriy,

There is no replacement for GlideChecksum in Scoped Applications at this time. You can open an Enchancement Request on Hi to request that a scoped version be made available in a future release.

In the mean time, there are several Javascript MD5 hash generators. You can import one as a Script Include in your Scoped App, and use it in place of GlideChecksum.

Thanks Cory.

This is what I actually did. But I would like to rely on SN built-in solutions.

You can use GlideDigest which works in scoped apps:

var digest = new GlideDigest();
gs.info(digest.getMD5Hex('Hello'));
