Hi,

i will build cdsp-Profile for Import with PHP. I seen that your CDSP Export is XML-File.

Can you help me with ProtectedPassword-Var? Can i crypt the Plain Password with Salt to ProtectedPassword? - How?

The password is de/encrypted via the .net-Framework-ProtectedData class (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.security.cryptography.protecteddata?view=netframework-4.8)

As far as I know this class uses Windows-DPAPI.
So If you want to de/encrypt the password you have to use the DPAPI or either write a simple C# commandline app, which can do the job and which you can utilize in other programming environments.
