## encodeMD5()
|
|
|
|
The `encodeMD5()` command generates an MD5 hash of the provided string and stores the result in a target variable. MD5 is a cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit value (32 hexadecimal characters), commonly used to verify data integrity.
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
|
|
* SourceVariable Type: `var` Description: The variable containing the text string to be encoded in MD5. It can be a direct value or a variable storing the input string.
|
|
* TargetVariable Type: `var` Description: The variable in which the resulting MD5 hash will be stored. Unlike the `SourceVariable` parameter, this must be a variable and not a direct value.
|
|
|
|
### Usage Example
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// Direct call with values:
|
|
encodeMD5('example_string', md5Hash)
|
|
|
|
// Call using variables:
|
|
text = 'example_string'
|
|
hashVariable = 'md5Hash'
|
|
encodeMD5(text, hashVariable)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the first example, an MD5 hash is generated from the string `'example_string'` and stored in the `md5Hash` variable. In the second example, a variable `text` is used to define the input string and another variable `hashVariable` is used to store the resulting MD5 hash.
