Filenames might contain user data, which must not be logged outside of a database with proper access control, schema annotations, and acccess auditing.
We can only display an opaque object key, so authorized devs can look up the filename using secure tools.
- magicalhippo 4y agoFair enough. I work mostly with good old desktop applications though, so if there's user data, it's almost always the users data. For the majority of errors in most applications one can provide some helpful information. But yeah, one need to be a bit careful if one has PII in the mix.
