Using GnuPGP in a Linx Process

Support
1

Hello all, Evaluating Linx for a project and looking into possibly using it to automate a process to download files encrypted with GnuPGP from an sftp site. I see there is no PGP options in the Cryptography plugin, is this something that I would have to add to the Solution via Visual Studio or is there a workaround that I am not aware of?

Thanks

Hi,

I’ve not used GnuPGP before, but had a quick look around. Are you familiar with it’s Command Line functionality? It can be quite easy to use Linx’s CommandLind component to run GnuPGP. I will enquire whether GnuPGP has been requested as a function on Linx on the Roadmap.

Best regards,
Dawie

Hi,

I’ve created a quick example of how to use the Commandline component in Linx to encrypt files. Please have a look. Just a couple of notes:

  • You need to have GnuPG installed, and the path set up in the solutions settings.
  • The recipient needs to exist on your GNUPG already.
