Mask a Field

Masking a field hides its actual values across the platform while keeping the field fully operational. This is useful for fields that contain sensitive data (e.g., PII, financial data) that should be protected but still monitored for quality.

Only fields with Active status can be masked. This includes both regular fields and computed fields.

Tip

For a detailed explanation of how masking works, where it is applied, audit logging, and which fields cannot be masked, see Field Masking.
