you can use this method

public string GetSha256Hash(string input)
{
   using (var hashAlgorithm = new SHA256CryptoServiceProvider())
   {
        var byteValue = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(input);
        var byteHash = hashAlgorithm.ComputeHash(byteValue);
        return Convert.ToBase64String(byteHash);
    }
}
