I have a custom record that has a password field. How would I go about checking a suitelet field against that password field? I'm essentially allowing users to "log in" to a suitelet by putting in their name and password, but when I do a saved search for the custom record with the same name and password, I'm not getting any results

There is a native API for that. Let me check the notes.

Gotcha. That's not an issue, was just seeing if there was another way. Thanks

My bad. It is available in 2021.1: crypto.checkPasswordField(options)
