Hi, I’ve been searching and can’t seem to find information to confirm. Is the data in Tap Forms, if synced to iCloud, protected with Advanced Data Protection, if activated in settings? Thank you. URL for information: https://support.apple.com/guide/security/advanced-data-protection-for-icloud-sec973254c5f/web
According to Apple’s documentation there:
Advanced Data Protection also automatically protects CloudKit fields that third-party developers choose to mark as encrypted, and all CloudKit assets.
Tap Forms syncs with iCloud using Apple’s CloudKit API.
I have not chosen to enable encryption on any of the fields, however, it also says and all CloudKit assets
. The fields that Tap Forms stores your data in are defined as being ASSET
fields. So I would think then that they would be encrypted when you enable ADP. The other fields in the CloudKit database are just things like the ID of the object (e.g. fld-......
), and if a category or field, their names. But the data that you enter into your records is stored in a binary asset, which according to Apple’s document, would be encrypted.
In the screenshot doc_data
is the binary data that comprises whatever it is that’s being synced, be it the field, form, or record data.
