View SSN or NI number
Social security numbers(SSN) or national identification (NI) numbers are masked in all advanced list outputs, including spreadsheet exports and API outputs.
Users with permission to view social security numbers(SSN) or national identification (NI) numbers can view the information in user contact cards, the user list, the students list, and the candidates list. Data remains visible (unmasked) and exportable in these “Sky” lists.
For security reasons, if you impersonate a user who has special access to view social security numbers or national identification numbers, the sensitive information will be hidden from you (the impersonator).
