Custom Data Identifiers

Custom data identifiers are created and customized by users according to their specific needs and requirements. Users can define the criteria and parameters for identifying particular types of data within their datasets.
A user can create a custom identifier based on their preferences, and there are three types of conditions available for creating it:
Using both regex and keyword:
If the user provides both a regex and a keyword while creating the identifier, it will detect matches when both values (regex and keyword) are present.
If only the regex value is present on the identifier (and the keyword is not), and the user pastes or types only the regex value, it will still detect.
However, if the user only pastes or types the keyword value (while both regex and keyword are set in the identifier), detection will not occur.
Using only regex:
If the user sets only a regex (without any keyword), detection will occur if the user pastes or types that regex value on any site.
Using only keyword:
If the user selects the "only keyword" option and provides just a keyword, detection will occur if the user pastes or types that keyword on any site.
