PGP Decrypt decrypts a message using PGP. This built-in script is active only if a valid MOVEit Automation PGP License is available.

For more information, see MOVEit Automation PGP documentation.

This script does not require any PGP key parameters. An encrypted PGP file "self-describes" itself to the point where MOVEit Automation can determine what settings it needs in order to decrypt the file if the appropriate PGP keys have been set up in MOVEit Automation .

Input Parameters

  • PGPPreserveName - True: Bases the name of the unencrypted file that results from the PGP Decrypt process is based on the preserved name that is also passed in the encrypted PGP file.

    Default is False, because not all PGP packages preserve the original file names.

  • PGPPreferredDecryptionKey - If there are a large number of private keys available to MOVEit Automation , set this parameter to the preferred key to use for decrypting files. This key is used first to decrypt files handed to the script. If decryption fails, the rest of the available keys are used in turn to attempt to decrypt the file.
  • PGPCheckSignature - Set this to "True" to check the signature (requires that the message be signed). Default is False, because not all PGP encrypted files are also "signed,"
