By default, encrypted columns are configured to be [automatically filtered in Rails logs](action_controller_overview.html#parameters-filtering). You can disable this behavior by adding the following to your `application.rb`:

When generating the filter parameter, it will use the model name as a prefix. E.g: For `Person#name` the filter parameter will be `person.name`.

```ruby
config.active_record.encryption.add_to_filter_parameters = false
```

In case you want exclude specific columns from this automatic filtering, add them to `config.active_record.encryption.excluded_from_filter_parameters`.
If filtering is enabled, but you want to exclude specific columns from automatic filtering, add them to `config.active_record.encryption.excluded_from_filter_parameters`:

```ruby
config.active_record.encryption.excluded_from_filter_parameters = [:catchphrase]
```

When generating the filter parameter, Rails will use the model name as a prefix. E.g: For `Person#name`, the filter parameter will be `person.name`.
