Encrypted field attribute

When the data in a field, such as a password field, is encrypted, the Boolean attribute, maxencrypted, is set to 1 (true). External systems use this value to determine whether to apply a decryption process to the information in the field.

The following example uses the MXPERSUSER object structure to provide user information, including a password, and the maxencrypted attribute is set on the PASSWORD field in the MAXUSER object.

<MXPERUSER>
<PERSON action="Replace">
<PERSONID>123</PERSONID>
<MAXUSER>
<MAXUSERID>10</MAXUSERID>
<PASSWORD maxencrypted=”1”> dmFzdG8=</PASSWORD>
<MAXUSER>
<PERSON>
<MXPERUSER>
