Redacting data

Remove sensitive fields in your process, before a span leaves it.

Redaction runs in the SDK. Redacted values are replaced with a placeholder and never reach Tracewell.

Rules

tracewell.init({ redact: ['email', 'phone', { path: 'args.card' }] })

tracewell.init({ redact: ['email', 'phone', { path: 'args.card' }] })

tracewell.init({ redact: ['email', 'phone', { path: 'args.card' }] })

Open any run and choose Redaction preview to see exactly what would have been stored.
