How to use the Transformation Engine to correctly Base64 encode the ObjectGUID

Description:  

How to use the Transformation Engine to correctly Base64 encode the ObjectGUID

Cause:  

The standard B64 example code for the transformation engine does not work correctly on ObjectGUID. Use this method instead. 

Resolution:  

1. Open the Web Admin console and map an AuxID to ObjectGUID. The example code below assumes that you have mapped AuxID10 to ObjectGuid on the Data tab.

2. On the Post Auth tab, click the Transformation Engine

3. Enable the Transformation Engine and use the following code

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" 
xmlns:user="urn:my-scripts"> 
<msxsl:script language="C#" implements-prefix="user"> 
<msxsl:using namespace="System.Globalization"/>

public string CamelWord(string v) 
{ 
TextInfo textinfo = new CultureInfo("en-US",false).TextInfo; 
return textinfo.ToTitleCase(v); 
} 

public string b64(string v)
{
Guid newGuid = new System.Guid(v);
Byte[] bytes = newGuid.ToByteArray();
var encodedGuid = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes);
return encodedGuid ;
}
