# Use the GetHashCode component {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Generate a HashCode from a string by using the GetHashCode component in RPA Desktop Design Studio.

## Before you begin

Role required: none

## About this task

You can configure the properties for the GetHashCode component. For more information
about these properties, see [Properties of the String Utilities components](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/C3ytG5BzE388~yaj_6OGug "Learn about the properties of the String Utilities components in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").

## Procedure

1. In the Toolbox pane, navigate to UtilitiesString Utilities.
2. Drag the GetHashCode component to the Design surface.
3. To configure the input fields, see [Configure port properties](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ED3jBpqtlHH8p~yFFmyRBQ "Configure how data is passed to the input fields of a component or method in RPA Desktop Design Studio.").
4. Connect the data and control ports of the GetHashCode component to the corresponding ports of the other components as described in the following table.  
   {#use-utilities-stringutilities-gethashcode__table_jnw_jn1_krb__entry__2}

   | Port type | Purpose of connection |
   |-|-|
   | Data In (Text) | Takes the string from a previously executed component. Used to specify the string from where the hashcode is computed. Data type: String |
   | Data Out (Return) | Returns the generated HashCode and passes to the next component. Data type: String |
   | Control In | Connects to the Control Out port of one or more components. |
   | Control Out | Connects to the Control In port of another component or the default end component. |
