  1. use Read Text file to read Text from notepad file and store it in a string variable.

  2. Then apply String manipulation functions or regular expression to fetch password from that String.

  3. check below thread to convert String to secure string and then pass it to Type Secure text Activity to type password.

It will read password from split text file and encrypt it and then will write into split1 text file. Please find the attached file for your reference.

username=abc
password=123a
isencrypted=false

if this is the content in notepad.
make it true once it is encrypted

if(isencrypted=“false”)…this condition not working, always taking to else condition

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(read,“(?<=(isencrypted=)).*”).Value

by the way where you are using this “key” -->“passwordEncryptKey”

After reading the text from text file and you are storing it in a string variable.

Then check below in IF condition

IF textOutput.Contains(“false”) then do encrypt text.

textOutput.replace("false’,“true”) - To replace false with true.

Have you used this method to replace the text. After this, again you have to write this output into text file by using Write Text activity. Then only it will update.

Here, you used Write Text activity two times.

First time it wrote encrypted text and then again you are updating status. That time it will override the previous content.

To overcome this issue, use Append Line activity instead of Write Text activity.
