Question

Where and how the e-mail Image Import Profile and Export Profile (for example, when exporting to SharePoint) credentials (user passwords and OAuth authentication tokens) are stored?

Answer

User passwords and OAuth authentication tokens are stored in a binary project properties file in encrypted form:

• in the *.fcproj file for a local project.
• in the File Storage and FlexiCapture database for a project uploaded to the Application Server.

For encryption purposes, the Microsoft implementation of the AES algorithm is used. The encryption key is calculated as an MD5 hash from a string hard-coded in the program code.
