Hi,

How can we encrypt and decrypt a password using vRO7?

is there any built-in functions are available?

Hi,

vRO configuration CLI tool at /usr/lib/vco/tools/configuration-cli/bin/vro-configure.sh provides a command to decrypt a password. The call looks something like:

/usr/lib/vco/tools/configuration-cli/bin/vro-configure.sh decrypt --value vcoencrypted:IB1ZEXR438MXlxw/WYl/ZBmYnw==

This tool does not provide a command for encryption.

Q1. How we can use that sh file in our script(action)?

Q2. is there any alternative solution instead?

If you want to use encryption/decryption in vRO scripting code, take a look at o11n-crypto plug-in - https://github.com/vmware/o11n-plugin-crypto

It supports many encoding/encryption/digest algorithms like AES, DES, RSA, and others.
