@HashPassword (Formula Language)

Encodes a string.

Note: This @function is new with Release 6.

Syntax

@HashPassword( string )

Parameters

string

Text. The string that you want to encode.

Return value

encodedString

Text. The passed-in string, double digest encoded for maximum security.

Usage

Some person records contain a $SecurePassword hidden field, which is double digest encoded in the @HashPassword format. If this field is not present in the record, the digest is encoded in the @Password format. @HashPassword creates a more secure password than the @Password function does.
