About auto-redact

In addition to manually redacting information in each document, you can automatically redact specified information in all selected documents that contain images. When setting up automatic redaction, you supply one or more words or regular expressions (regex) that, when matched, is redacted. A regex is a sequence of characters that depicts a search pattern. Examples of regex include dates, phone numbers, postal zip codes, invoice numbers, and part numbers. The regex to use depends on the data you need to redact. For more information about regex, refer to Regular expression reference.
