JMeter encrypted credentials

When I recorded the login process, the password is encrypted in the request, so when I tried to change the credentials by setting the password to plain text, I get 500 response code.

Try to identify the encoding mechanism and encrypt the password on the fly using Beanshell PreProcessor the following example encodes value stored under ${plainpassword} variable using Base64 encoding and stores encrypted value as ${encodedpassword} variable

import org.apache.commons.net.util.Base64;

String plainPassword = vars.get("plainpassword");
String encodedPassword = new String(Base64.encodeBase64(plainPassword.getBytes()));
vars.put("encodedpassword", encodedPassword);

See How to Use BeanShell: JMeter's Favorite Built-in Component guide for more information on Beanshell scripting in JMeter and a form of Beanshell cookbook.
