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.

55 55  First, we need to navigate to the Create phase of eMagiz and open the flow in which we want to add this logic. Once you have opened your flow, you need to enter "Start editing" mode. This mode allows you to change the flow in question and add the logic to the transformation within the flow. When you have done so, it becomes time to add the base64 encode component to the flow.
