Social Security Number (SSN)

The Social Security Number Field has three different output formats:

• Full Field - This output format returns the partially redacted form of the SSN. For example, *--6789.
• Full - This output format returns the non-redacted form of the SSN. For example, 123-45-6789.
• Last Four - This output format returns the last four numbers of the SSN. For example, 6789.

All numerical characters are allowed. Any other characters will cause the Social Security Number Field to fail validation.

The SSN field can be filtered using any of the item-type filters.
