How to use SecureConnectionstring property in Database Connect activity?

Hey @sowmiya.anbalagan

If you want to pass it as a string,

new System.Net.NetworkCredential("",secureStringPwd).Password

Thanks

Hi

I would suggest you to check this thread where they had a discussion on similar note

Secure Database connection string

When we use Connect Database activity the connection string with username and password is not encrypt. Does UiPath provide anyway to secure Database connection string? Thanks a lot.

Hope this would help you with some idea

Cheers @sowmiya.anbalagan

Hello,

I think at the moment the best and safest way is to use an orchestrator credential and store the entire connection string in the password field.

Then you can use a get-credential activity, output only the password and pass that as a secure connection string to the ‘connect to database’ activity.
