I have a varchar
column in a table in SQL Server that holds a Base64-encoded text string,
which I would like to decode into its plain text equivalent.
Does SQL Server have any native functionality to handle this type of thing?
Here is a sample base64 string:
cm9sZToxIHByb2R1Y2VyOjEyIHRpbWVzdGFtcDoxNDY4NjQwMjIyNTcxMDAwIGxhdGxuZ3tsYXRpdHVkZV9lNzo0MTY5ODkzOTQgbG9uZ2l0dWRlX2U3Oi03Mzg5NjYyMTB9IHJhZGl1czoxOTc2NA==
which decodes to:
role:1 producer:12 timestamp:1468640222571000 latlng{latitude_e7:416989394 longitude_e7:-738966210} radius:19764
