Unmasking data in reports
In order for masked data to be displayed in plain text in reports, certain requirements must be met:
-
Data masking must be activated
-
Permission to unmask data must be available
-
The setting must be set individually for each report
Please note the following:
-
If you want to send the report by e-mail, the data will remain unmasked and will remain visible to everyone who sees this e-mail. This may lead to a breach of data protection.
-
Once you select one of the options in the Share report section, data masking is automatically activated again. This means that the option under point 2. below is not even visible for shared reports, even if all the requirements above are met.
Under Analytics -> Reports, open the report you want to remove the data masking for.
Under Settings, check the option Show data, [...] in plain text [...], as illustrated in the figure below.
Your report is now displayed in a different color in the list of reports.
