Sensitive Data Discovery

In previous documentation, rule and pattern are referred to as classifier or identifier, and framework is referred to as template.

Workflow

1. Create a pattern.

2. Create an identification framework containing one or more rules.

3. Search for pattern or identification frameworks.

4. Apply an identification framework to one or more data sources.

5. Run SDD on one or more data sources; tags are applied to columns where rules were found.

6. Update patterns or identification frameworks.

7. Delete patterns or identification frameworks.

Create a pattern

To run this pattern against your data, ensure it is added to a framework.

POST /sdd/classifier

Create a pattern.

Apply identification frameworks to data sources

PUT /sdd/template/apply

Apply an identification framework to a set of data sources.

Payload parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
template	string The name of the identification framework to apply to the data sources. null to clear current framework, and the data source will use the global framework.	Yes
sources	string The name of the data sources to apply the framework to.	Yes

Response parameters

Attribute	Description
success	boolean When true, the request was successful.

Request example

This request applies the MY_FIRST_FRAMEWORK framework to the Public Case data source.

curl \
    --request PUT \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
