One Way Hash

Hashing is commonly used to obfuscate sensitive information. Hashing an email address or a customer id will return the same obfuscated value every time for tracking purposes.

This extension requires one value for configuration - a data element to be evaluated and obfuscated using a one-way hash. The algorithm used by this extension is SHA256.

In the example below we are creating a data element named EmailAddressHashed which uses the EmailAddress data element as its input.

The result of this can be tested in the console. "[e-mail]" is successfully hashed to produce "08808162c34b67a093209f06bda6f8ebc544a9debc73e88be727cbcd460ad056".
