PGP Decrypt block

Configuration reference for the Decrypt Data block — decrypts encrypted source files before processing.

The decrypt_content block decrypts encrypted source files before they are processed downstream. It acts as an optional transformation block in a Connect+ dataflow, sitting between the source and transformation blocks to handle secure content. The block supports PGP-based decryption using a private key and passphrase, and can be enabled or disabled without removing it from the dataflow.

When to use this block

Use this block when your source files are PGP-encrypted and must be decrypted before transformation or validation can occur.

Prerequisites

Before configuring this block, make sure you have:

The private key used to decrypt the files, in Base64-encoded format
The passphrase for the private key (if one was set during key generation)
