Partially mask a string by replacing a given number of characters with a fixed character. Masking can start from the beginning or end of the string. This can be used on data of any type (numbers, longs, and so on) and when de-identifying structured data we’ll attempt to preserve the original data’s type. (This allows you to take a long like 123 and modify it to a string like **3.

Number of characters to mask. If not set, all matching chars will be masked. Skipped characters do not count towards this tally.

When masking a string, items in this list will be skipped when replacing characters. For example, if the input string is 555-555-5555 and you instruct Cloud DLP to skip - and mask 5 characters with *, Cloud DLP returns ***-**5-5555.
