Hashing is not encryption
You cannot ‘decrypt’ a SHA256 hash

Hi Harshraj,

The Mendix CommunityCommons module has this functionality see:

GenerateHMAC_SHA256_hash - Generates a base64 encoded asymmetric hash using the HMAC_SHA256 hash algorithm.

GenerateHMAC_SHA256 - Generates a hexadecimal encoded asymmetric hash using the HMAC_SHA256 hash algorithm.

The module will provide java actions that will encrypt your string.
