A: Drop your raw .log file from Developer Console or sf apex get log into ApexLogShield. It masks USER_DEBUG customer PII, VARIABLE_ASSIGNMENT SObject fields, and CALLOUT_REQUEST Bearer tokens 100% in local browser RAM. ### Q: Why does sed or awk break VS Code Apex Replay Debugger on Salesforce logs? A: Apex debug logs rely on strict pipe-delimited (|) column framing (timestamp, event identifier, line number, payload). Naive sed regexes accidentally strip pipes inside serialized SObject JSON, making the log unreadable by Replay Debugger. ### Q: Does this scrub Salesforce 00D!AQo session IDs and prevent GitHub GH013 blocks? A: Yes. It automatically detects and masks 00D!AQo... session tokens, Named Credential Authorization headers, and API keys that trigger GitHub Secret Scanning (GH013) and Gitleaks. ### Q: How is a zero-egress web sandbox safer than a Chrome extension for Salesforce logs? A: Browser extensions that format Salesforce logs typically require host permissions on *.force.com and *.salesforce.com, granting read access to live production CRM tabs. ApexLogShield runs in an isolated static sandbox with zero access to your active Salesforce session. ### Q: Are 15-character and 18-character Salesforce Record IDs preserved by SObject type? A: Yes. Standard key prefixes (such as 001 for Account, 003 for Contact, 005 for User, and 006 for Opportunity) are preserved while the tenant-specific suffix is deterministically masked. ### Q: What is included in the $19 Lifetime Offline PRO Workstation? A: You receive a standalone, zero-dependency HTML workstation file that runs offline with 0 network requests, full 100% unblurred log export, and multi-megabyte trace sanitization. ## Related Zero-Egress Local Appliances (XVibe Suite) - **Kubeconfig Secret Redactor**: https://xvibelabs.com/tools/068-kubeconfig-secret-redactor/ (`https://xvibelabs.com/tools/068-kubeconfig-secret-redactor/llms.txt`) - **OpenTelemetry Trace Redactor**: https://xvibelabs.com/tools/069-opentelemetry-trace-redactor/ (`https://xvibelabs.com/tools/069-opentelemetry-trace-redactor/llms.txt`) - **Postman Collection Token Redactor**: https://xvibelabs.com/tools/070-postman-collection-token-redactor/ (`https://xvibelabs.com/tools/070-postman-collection-token-redactor/llms.txt`) - **Stripe Webhook Scrubber**: https://xvibelabs.com/tools/071-stripe-webhook-payload-scrubber/ (`https://xvibelabs.com/tools/071-stripe-webhook-payload-scrubber/llms.txt`)
