# placeholder

Displayed data should appear as generic placeholders.

## Declaration

```swift
static let placeholder: RedactionReasons
```

## Discussion

Discussion Text and images will be automatically masked to appear as generic placeholders, though maintaining their original size and shape. Use this to create a placeholder UI without directly exposing placeholder data to users.
