However, sometimes there are cases in which you need a little bit of extra complexity. This microlearning will explain one of those more complex scenarios. In this microlearning, we will learn how to use base64 decoding on your (input) message. This functionality is beneficial when the message is encoded, but you need to manipulate part of the data.

41		-The Base64 decode algorithm converts plain text into original data. Technically, it can be said that it converts six-bit bytes into eight-bit bytes. So when you have the base64 string of QUJD, you could manually convert this to a readable format. You can find an excellent explanation of how it works [here](https://base64.guru/learn/base64-algorithm/decode). Luckily for us, eMagiz will do all the heavy lifting, and we do not have to take out pen and paper.
