Searching & filtering entries
A real document can produce dozens of entries. The search box at the top of the entries panel keeps that list manageable.
What it matches
Section titled “What it matches”Type into the search box and the list filters to entries whose original text, replacement, or type contains what you typed. It’s a live, case-insensitive contains-match — no need to press Enter.
Ways to use it
Section titled “Ways to use it”- Track one person. Search a first name —
Lucía— to pull up every entry tied to them: their name, email, maybe a phone. Confirm each is handled the way you want. - Review one category. Search a type —
EMAIL,ADDRESS,DOB— to inspect all entries of that kind together. Good for spot-checking that every date of birth was caught. - Check a fake value. Search a synthesized result —
David Romero— to make sure that fake value didn’t land somewhere it shouldn’t, and to see how many real values map to it. - Find a specific string. Hunting for a stray account number? Paste it in.
It only filters the view
Section titled “It only filters the view”Search never changes what’s applied to the document. Filtering the list to three entries doesn’t disable the other forty — they’re still active, just hidden while you search. Clear the box (the ×) to see everything again.
This matters: don’t search, see a short list, and assume that’s all there is. The count chip in the header always shows the total, regardless of the filter.
Pairing search with the instant-redact view
Section titled “Pairing search with the instant-redact view”Search tells you what’s in the list. The instant-redact preview tells you what’s covered in the document. Used together they answer the reviewer’s two questions: “is everything I expect in here?” (search) and “is anything sensitive still showing?” (instant redact).
