# RedactFromText

You can use the `RedactFromText` action to submit text in the `Text` HTTP parameter, and return the input text with any matches that contain confidential or sensitive data redacted.

## Example

    http://localhost:13000/?action=RedactFromText&Text=The driver Joe Bloggs was questioned.

This action might result in output similar to the following XML:

    <autnresponse>
    <action>REDACTROMTEXT</action>
    <response>SUCCESS</response>
    <responsedata>
    <autn:redacted_output>The driver [redacted] was questioned</autn:redacted_output>
    </responsedata>
    </autnresponse>
