Type Alias: TransformName

TransformName = "redact" | "generalize" | "date-shift" | "pseudonymize" | "hash" | "block" | "byo-redact"

The name of a transform a policy can assign to a category. block is the fail-closed action (withhold the value); generalize selects the correct generalization from the locus kind (date / ZIP / age).

byo-redact is not a policy-assignable Safe Harbor transform and not something the library performs - it is the manifest marker the engine records when a consumer-supplied free-text redactor redacts a free-text locus. The library bundles no redactor; the consumer brings the detector. Assigning byo-redact to a category in a policy has no effect beyond the fail-closed default (the engine blocks it), because free-text redaction is driven by the redactor option, not by the per-category policy map.

Example

import { type TransformName } from "@cosyte/deid";

const t: TransformName = "pseudonymize";
