This component allows you to encrypt and decrypt strings in an integration. You can elect to encrypt or decrypt strings using either a password or a public/private key pair. RSA key pairs of any key size are compatible with these actions. ## Actions[​](#actions "Direct link to Actions") ### Decrypt File[​](#decryptfile "Direct link to Decrypt File") Decrypt a file with a password or PGP private key and passphrase | **key: decryptFile** | Input | Notes | Example | | ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | File to Decrypt | This should be a reference to a previous step that returns binary data. | | | Private Key Passphrase | Provide a string passphrase for your private key if you are using a private key to decrypt the message. | | | Password | Provide a string password to encrypt the message. You can elect to encrypt the message with a password or public PGP key, but not both. | P\@s$w0Rd | | Private Key | Provide a string PGP pviate key to decrypt the message. You can elect to decrypt the message with a password or private PGP key, but not both. | -----BEGIN PGP PRIVATE KEY BLOCK----- EXAMPLE== -----END PGP PRIVATE KEY BLOCK----- | Example Payload for Decrypt File[⤓](https://prismatic.io/docs/example-payloads/pgp/actions/decryptFile.json "Download example payload") Loading… *** ### Decrypt Message[​](#decryptstring "Direct link to Decrypt Message") Decrypt a string message with a password or PGP private key and passphrase | **key: decryptString** | Input | Notes | Example | | ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Encrypted Message | The message to be decrypted. | -----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- EXAMPLE== -----END PGP MESSAGE----- | | Private Key Passphrase | Provide a string passphrase for your private key if you are using a private key to decrypt the message. | | | Password | Provide a string password to encrypt the message.
