Hi all,

I am using SHA 256 algorithm to encrypt the password hash (with pre-fix salt) and able to create the user in Okta with that imported hash but after creation, I am unable to authenticate the same user by providing the same password. Kindly help!!!

        var hash = new Hash()
        {
            Algorithm = "SHA-256",
            Salt = "nco7crN1HUdGzA0ezrgTjA==", // Base64 encoded
            SaltOrder = "PREFIX",
            Value = "66mLxWwyh/YX59xjLGTQpiv0HnH4/ii7Q8q4kMF/6zQ=" // Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes("P@ssword123") 
        };
