How to find my obscured/private observations?

Hi @karimhaddad, this came in as a feature request but I moved it to #general. It’s currently possible to search for your obscured/private observations in two ways. The first: go to the top right and click Edit observations:

Then next to Geoprivacy, you can select “obscured”, “private”, or “obscured or private”. If you click the last one, that brings you to: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/karimhaddad?geoprivacy=obscured_private

The other way is to click “Your Observations” at the top of the page and add this text to the end of the URL: &geoprivacy=obscured,private, to get: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?geoprivacy=obscured_private&place_id=any&subview=grid&user_id=karimhaddad

Those are the observations you manually marked as obscured or private.

To find your observations where the taxon caused the observation to be automatically marked as obscured or private, due to its conservation status, you can use taxon_geoprivacy instead, to get: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations?place_id=any&subview=grid&taxon_geoprivacy=obscured_private&user_id=karimhaddad&view=species

Redesigning that second “Your Observations” aka “Explore” page is on the list of upcoming projects that the iNat team plans to implement. Perhaps they’ll add filters for geoprivacy in the redesign.
