Overview
You can use this Snap to encrypt the binary documents that it receives on its input view using the AES algorithm and user-specified encryption parameters.
| Note |
|---|
The default security in the JRE limits the key length for encryption keys. For stronger encryption keys, you would need to manually install the Java Cryptographic Extension JARs on your JCC nodes. |
- Expected upstream Snaps: Any Snap that produces binary data in the output view such as File Reader or Compress.
- Expected downstream Snaps: Any Snap that accepts binary data in the input view such as File Writer or Decompress.

Input | Binary |
|
| Requires the EDI data and internal ID as a JSON document. |
Output | Binary |
|
| The EDI transaction ID and order confirmation. |
Error | Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter while running the Pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab. The available options are:
