Hi Community,

I have been trying to decrypt a password in my lower environment, noticed a strange behavior when the password string contains &, ; and # the password is not getting decrypted I tried adding CDATA tag as well and replaced & with & too but still not working. The same code is working when I’m decrypting a string that doesn’t have &, # or ;
code used.

please suggest me how to decrypt the password.

Hi Charan,
I’m affraid it is a bug in IIQ - I’ve had the same with SQLLoader connector - if password contained certain characters than IIQ was not able to decrypt it and connect to the system. If I changed password to the one without this characters everything worked correctly.
