Step 1: Install the Plugin Open your Bubble app.

Go to the Plugins tab.

Click “Add plugins”.

Search for “WGD AES256 Encrypt” or use your plugin’s install link.

Click Install.

Step 2: Use the Encryption Action in a Workflow
Go to the Workflow tab.

Create a new trigger (e.g., when a button is clicked).

Add an action: Plugins → WGD AES256 Encrypt.

Step 3: Configure the Plugin Action Inputs
You will see two required fields:

Key:
Enter a secret key (a string) that will be used for both encryption and decryption.
Example: mySuperSecretKey123!

Value:
The plain text you want to encrypt.
Example: [email protected] or any dynamic value from the page or database.

Step 4: Use the Encrypted Output
After the plugin runs, it returns:

Result → value:
This is the AES256-encrypted version of your input text.

You can:

Display the result in a text element

Save it to the database

Send it via an API

Pass it into another workflow step

Step 5: Decryption (Optional)
To decrypt this value later:

You’ll need a matching decryption plugin or function that accepts:

The encrypted value

The same secret key

Ensure that both encryption and decryption always use the same key.
