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 encoding on your (input) message. This functionality is beneficial when the message is not encoded, but you need to send the data encoded to the external party.

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