How to encrypt /decrypt Passwords?

siva44 — Mon, 09 Dec 2024 11:59:43 GMT

Hai I am using the run script for reset AD password through workflow but in script we are used the GlideEncrypter but servicenow The GlideEncrypter API is planned for deprecation so how to modify that script

script:

//Generate Random Password and Set AD password.

var encr= new GlideEncrypter();

var clearString = new PwdCryptoSecureAutoGenPassword().generatePassword();

var encrString = encr.encrypt(clearString); //Encrypted password for use in the Set AD Password Activity.

workflow.scratchpad.pass = encrString; //Set scratchpad password variable to the encrypted password string.

var decrString = workflow.scratchpad.clearpass = encr.decrypt(encrString); //Can be used as the clear text password

Hi @siva44

You could have a Password2 type system property defined and get the property value within the workflow by using

workflow.scratchpad.pass = gs.getProperty('name of the property');

Thanks and Regards
