We just had an AC Gold site move to our servers that didn't have an encyrption key set, so I set one. That caused a third party integration to stop working because the ApiPassword was sent encrypted when it had been sent in clear text. Evidently the application that the api is connecting to doesn't decrypt a password. The person who wrote the AC integration isn't supporting it now.
Is there a way to send an api request without encrypting the password? I tried hardcoding the password instead of getting it from the store settings and it didn't help. The body of the request is created using JsonConvert.SerializeObject.
Thank

Hi Judy,

There may be an easier way to send the API password manually, without encryption, but I was going to suggest you look at the Configure > Security > Database configuration page. I remembered that we have code in that page which will decrypt the connection string. Perhaps you can utilize this as an example of decrypting the key for this integration.

I hope this helps.
