    HI @Steve Linn ,

    I am doing encryption decryption using gateway script but getting below error while executing attached js file. Can you please help me in resolving this

    couple of small errors in your script
    - you didn't define the output of the encryption, hence it would be a buffer
    - you did add an extra parameter in the decipher update (that's the error it's complaining about above)
    - you didn't define the decipher final 

    The following script is the working version

    const crypto = require('crypto');

// Encryption
function encrypt(plainText, encryptionKey, iv) {
  const cipher = crypto.createCipheriv('aes128-cbc', encryptionKey, iv);
  let encrypted = cipher.update(plainText);
  return cipher.final('hex');;
}

// Decryption
function decrypt(encryptedText, encryptionKey, iv) {
    console.error('Insidie Decrypt:', encryptedText );
    console.error('Insidie Decrypt iv:', iv );

  var decipher = crypto.createDecipheriv('aes128-cbc', encryptionKey, iv);
 decipher.update(encryptedText,'hex');
 var originalPlainText = decipher.final('utf8');
  return originalPlainText;
}

// Example usage
const encryptionKey = Buffer.from('0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef','hex');
const iv = Buffer.from(crypto.randomBytes(16),'hex');
const plainText = 'This is a test message';

const encryptedText = encrypt(plainText, encryptionKey, iv);
console.error('Encrypted text:', encryptedText);

const decryptedText = decrypt(encryptedText, encryptionKey, iv);
console.error('Decrypted text:', decryptedText);
