Hi guys,
Is there a way in KNIME to transform a string into a base64 representation?
I saw that there is a Table to String node from a contributor that transform a whole table into base64 representation but I would need to transform just individual strings. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

It would for sure be possible in a Java Snippet. the bigger question is why you would do / need that? base64 is to convert binary data to a string representation.
Hello,
I’m kind of stuck at the same problem. I need it for a Rest API call, a certain part of a url needs to be in base64.
From “urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.file:vf.EKZOuGboShKXrj24Ezhj4g?version=2” to “dXJuOmFkc2sud2lwcHJvZDpmcy5maWxlOnZmLkVLWk91R2JvU2hLWHJqMjRFemhqNGc/dmVyc2lvbj0y”. Done with codebeautify.org
I tried to solve it with a R snippet, as seen here, but no sucess.
You could check out this example and see if you could modify it.
Hello @mlauber71, thanks for the reply.
It took some trial and error but I figured it out.
- How to use the R snippet.
- How to instal R stuff on the KNIME server.
- Lots of trial and error.
Hi , Can you please tell me how did you converted string to base64? as you have already figured out The above knime workflow doesn’t work.
Thank you!
See my answer in the other thread:
Strin to Base64_R.knwf (6.2 KB)
Via R snippet:
library(jsonlite)
base64 <- base64_enc(toString(knime.in$"string"))
knime.out <- cbind(knime.in,base64)
It compains when I don’t force it into an R string, no idea. But should work…
There is a component for it:
