As I mentioned in my previous reply, if you have a specific use case in mind it's typically best to start with the item type with the most cross over, then customize it to suite your needs. If you use the credentials to sign in anywhere digitally, I would recommend a Login item type.
For PINs getting flagged by Watchtower, there are a couple options. Watchtower checks the default password field in Login and Password items, so if you're starting with one of those items you could add a secondary field and save the PIN there. Alternatively you can just select the "Ignore" button in the watchtower alert banner.
I have been using either a logon or router, but as soon as you put that item into an item that is hidden...
Could you share a bit more about what's getting hidden here, or what sort of issue you're running into? Thanks again!

I'm sorry... I only see two values that have an auto hide, with reveal. They are password or one-time password. With the password field really being the only one, but it is scanned by Watchtower. I'm also seeing that watchtower is scanning router types. Is there a document that helps answer additional details about watchtower scans. I like this feature so I would like it to keep scanning things to help keep real password's sanitized. Please let me know if this makes it better vs still need additional details.

Thanks for the reply. You can find Watchtower documented here: Use Watchtower to find account details you need to change
Let me know if you have any other questions.
