I and @Sanket_Vyavahare are trying to convert a string into SHA 512 using Javascript code but it is producing a lot of errors in the code.

Error: [Function Error ReferenceError: require is not defined]

Code:

Also, only SHA256 option is available under the Experimental Section.  
Can anyone please guide us on how to convert a string in GlideSheet to SHA512.

Why not use the plugin column?

> **[Glide • SHA256 Hash column](https://www.glideapps.com/plugins/sha256)**
>
> The SHA256 column takes a string value and returns the 256 length string hash.

Thanks for your response, @Darren_Murphy.

We need a sha512 encrypted string to integrate with a payment gateway. The payment gateway does not support sha256 encrypted string.

We could generate the sha256 string using plugin column.

Anything we can do here?

Apologies, I misread.

Can you show me the JavaScript code that isn’t working for you?

yeah, that won’t work.

Try the following:

```auto
const { sha512 } = await import("https://cdn.skypack.dev/js-sha512");
return sha512(p1);

```
