Add ability to override individual components for masking

[eharmshoagie]

Feature description

My app deals with PHI data, and for now we have to mask everything, as we cannot use the MASK_SENSITIVE_INPUTS due to the following issues we have:

• datePickers do not get masked as sensitive, we currently need to use MASK_ALL - we use them for date of birth
• we use Google Autocomplete for address, unless we use MASK_ALL we can see the addresses that get returned in the autocomplete results. We would like to use TouchPrivacyLevel.SHOW, so that leaves a dot on the address thats shown. Would be great to be able to mask the address results
• dynamic text - we have some text on our screens that contain strings the user has entered. Would be great to be able to test strings with regex and mask accordingly

I've only begun using Session Replay today, we've been waiting a long time for it and are very excited we can now use it. Keep up the good work!

Hello @eharmshoagie 👋

Thank you for your kind words! Your feedback is extremely valuable as we are in the process of designing and building fine-grained masking capabilities.

Feel free to expand your list of bullet points if you encounter any other similar use cases.

@marco-saia-datadog is this something that's on the roadmap at all?

We're also dying for this level of override at an individual node level if possible. similar to how the browser sdk works.

Seems as though you can override a specific view in the native sdks but not react native, but you can't seem to mask specific elements on the screen in any of the mobile sdks, is that correct?

might have spoke too soon: #860 🎊

We're happy to share that version 2.8.0 is now available! 🎉

This release introduces Fine-Grained Masking, which enables custom privacy overrides. You can find more details in our documentation.

I'm closing this issue for now, but feel free to reach out if you have any further questions or feedback :)
