Will Data Masking works for Message Logging policy?

[#1]

In my API proxy I am using the Data masking policy to mask the sensitive data in trace. But when I send the same masked content to Loggly using message logging policy its not masking the sensitive information. Any idea how to resolve this?

Data masking is only for hiding the data in trace.It will not encrypt/mask the actual payload. So if you take the data and log it to an external log etc. it will not be masked.

You will need to use java/python/javascript etc. to actually encrypt/mask the data.

@sarthak, Thank you for the confirmation.
