+## Hiding characters in a questionnaire
+We can hide sensitive information typed on a questionnaire through adding a linkId extension. A sample linkId with password-widget extension looks like
+``` json
+{
+  "extension": [
+    {
+      "url": "https://github.com/google/android-fhir/StructureDefinition/questionnaire-itemControl",
+      "valueString": "password-widget"
+    },
+    {
+      "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/minLength",
+      "valueInteger": 16
+    },
+    {
+      "url": "http://ehelse.no/fhir/StructureDefinition/validationtext",
+      "valueString": "NIK number should be of 16 digits"
+    },
+    {
+      "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/regex",
+      "valueString": "^\\+?(?:[()\\h-]*\\d[()\\h-]*){16}$"

+    }
+  ],

+Below is the specific extension for this. The extension is validated at class called [PasswordViewHolderFactory](https://github.com/opensrp/fhircore/blob/main/android/quest/src/main/java/org/smartregister/fhircore/quest/ui/sdc/PasswordViewHolderFactory.kt)
+``` json
+  {

+          "valueString": "password-widget"
+        }
+```
