Hash Md5

Generates MD5 hashes from text input via `/v1/hash/md5` endpoint. Returns a 32-character hexadecimal string like `5d41402abc4b2a76b9719d911017c592` for "hello". Useful for checksums, cache keys, and data integrity verification in AI workflows, though cryptographically weak for security purposes.

API Endpoint

GET /v1/hash/md5

Code Examples

curl "https://tinyfn.io/v1/hash/md5" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
const response = await fetch('https://tinyfn.io/v1/hash/md5', {
  headers: { 'X-API-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' }
});
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
import requests

response = requests.get('https://tinyfn.io/v1/hash/md5',
    headers={'X-API-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY'})
data = response.json()
print(data)

FAQ

How do I generate an MD5 hash using the TinyFn API?

Send a GET request to `/v1/hash/md5` with your text as a parameter. The API returns a 32-character hexadecimal MD5 hash.

Is MD5 secure enough for password hashing?

No, MD5 is cryptographically broken and vulnerable to collision attacks. Use SHA-256 or bcrypt for passwords and security-sensitive applications.

Can I use MD5 hashing in my AI agent workflows through MCP?

Yes, the hash_md5 tool works in Cursor, Claude Code, and other MCP-compatible editors for generating checksums and cache keys in agent scripts.

What's the difference between MD5 and SHA-1 hashing?

MD5 produces 128-bit (32 hex chars) hashes and is faster but less secure. SHA-1 generates 160-bit hashes and is slightly more secure but still deprecated.

Does the MD5 hash change if I add a space to my text?

Yes, MD5 is deterministic but sensitive to any character change. "hello" and "hello " produce completely different hashes.
