DEVELOPERS FORUM - retrieve password using javascript

abhi - Tuesday, October 6, 2015 2:42 AM:

Hi

Is there any way to retrieve password from aras database using javascript ? It should be decrypted.

Hi,

The data type of password property is MD5 which is a hash function not an encryption.  MD5 is a one way algorithm, you can not get the actual string from MD5.

Hi

What if I just want the encrypted password string ? Is it possible to get the encrypted password via javascript for logged in user ?

No, you can't get password value from either JavaScript or a server method. The select access is denied on this property.

Hi,

Why do you want to retrieve your password?
