You can use the openssl::md5
function to calculate MD5 values for the text data in a column. For example, if you have a column “name” and you want MD5 for the column, you can do the following.
- Select “Create Calculation” from the column header menu.
- Type in the following in the Calculation Editor.
as.character(openssl::md5(name))
If you want SHA-1, you can use openssl::sha1
instead.
