SHA1
This function converts the specified string into a SHA1 hex value hash.
Arguments
SHA1(1,2)
| Ordinal | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | String | True | String to convert |
| 2 | String | False | Character set to use for character-encoding. Valid values are UTF-8 (default) and UTF-16 |
NOTE: The results of the SHA1 hash are considered one-way, meaning they cannot be decrypted.
Example
%%[
var @emailAddress
var @SHA1EmailAddressUTF8
var @SHA1EmailAddressUTF16
set @emailAddress = AttributeValue("emailAddr") /* value from attribute or DE column in send context */
set @emailAddress = "curt@limedash.com" /* or a literal value */
set @SHA1EmailAddressUTF8 = SHA1(@emailAddress)
set @SHA1EmailAddressUTF16 = SHA1(@emailAddress, "UTF-16")
]%%
emailAddress: %%=v(@emailAddress)=%%
<br>SHA1EmailAddressUTF8: %%=v(@SHA1EmailAddressUTF8)=%%
<br>SHA1EmailAddressUTF16: %%=v(@SHA1EmailAddressUTF16)=%%Output
emailAddress: curt@limedash.com
