About

At times you may have documents to process that contain sensitive data such as personal contact information, Social Security Numbers (SSNs), account numbers, etc. You might want to obscure and/or remove this information on the document. Grooper can do this for you through the Redact Activity.

You can configure a Redact Batch Process Step to take extracted data (either from a Data Field or by referencing an extractor) and cover it with a colored bar that hides the information from view. You can customize the color of the bar, including matching it to the color of the document itself to make it seem like the information was completely removed from the document.

Even though the information will be redacted on the image or PDF of the document, the information will still be present in the attached text data. To remove the information from the text data, you will need to use a Correct activity in your Batch Process.

  1. On the Employer Contribution Refund Form below, we have two sections where all or parts of account numbers are displayed. This is sensitive information that we would rather not be visible on the document.


  1. Below we have redacted the account numbers. This is the result we want after the document goes through the Redact Activity.


How To

In this tutorial we are going to take the Employer Contribution Refund Form from the previous section and configure a Redact Batch Process Step to redact the two account numbers on the form.

  1. In the screenshot below, we see that we have set up a Data Type that is collecting the sensitive data from our document.
  2. Both account numbers are being returned.


  1. Under our Data Model we have a Data Field that is also collecting one of the account numbers considered as "sensitive information".
  2. We can configure Grooper to redact the value of the Data Field like the account number.
