Generate hash

This quick action helps you concatenate a set of strings and calculate a hash of the combined string. Hashing is useful for password storage, data integrity, and digital signatures and speeds up data retrieval while requiring less storage.

1. In your workflow, go to + Add step > Integrations > Quick action.
2. Select the Generate hash operation.
3. Enter the input strings or use {} to refer to data already used in the workflow.
   Tip: the string can be static or dynamic and have the following format: string, integer, boolean or JSON
4. Select the separator for the strings. For example, it can be an underscore(_) or a pipe (|).
5. Select the hashing method that best fits your needs.
   Hashing methods

   - Message-digest hash functions such as MD5 hash digital signatures. Once hashed, the signature is transformed into a shorter value called a message digest. This method is good for error-checking purposes such as detecting file corruption, - SHA-256 is a standard algorithm for creating a larger message digest. It's useful for database storage and retrieval, digital signatures, and cryptographic security. SHA-512 is stronger than SHA-256. - BLAKE2b is efficient in hashing digital signatures and fast hashing for large data processing (due to high performance).
