Sensitive Data Discovery (SDD) API Reference Guide

Note

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

Workflow

Create a pattern.
Create an identification framework containing one or more rules.
Search for pattern or identification frameworks.
Apply an identification framework to one or more data sources.
Run SDD on one or more data sources; tags are applied to columns where rules were found.
Update patterns or identification frameworks.
Delete patterns or identification frameworks.

Create a pattern

Note

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

EndpointQuery ParametersPayload ParametersResponse Parameters

Endpoint

Method	Path	Purpose
PUT	`sdd/template/apply`	Apply an identification framework to a set of data sources.

Query Parameters

None.

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" \
    --header "Authorization: Bearer dea464c07bd07300095caa8" \
    --data @example-payload.json \
    https://your-immuta-url.immuta.com/sdd/template/apply

Payload example

{
  "template": "MY_FIRST_FRAMEWORK",
  "sources": [
    "Public Case"
  ]

Run SDD on data sources

EndpointQuery ParametersPayload ParametersResponse Parameters

Endpoint

Method	Path	Purpose
POST	`sdd/run`	Run SDD on specified data sources.

Query Parameters

None.

Payload Parameters

Attribute	Description	Required
sources	`string` The name of the data sources to apply the identification framework to.	Yes
all	`boolean` If `true`, SDD will run on all Immuta data sources.	No
wait	`integer` The number of seconds to wait for the SDD jobs to finish. The value `-1` will wait until the jobs complete. Default is `-1`.	No
dryRun	`boolean` When `true`, SDD will not update the tags on the data source(s). Instead of applying tags, SDD returns the tags that would be applied to the data source. This allows users to evaluate whether or not rules or frameworks are applying tags correctly without updating the data source. Default is `false`.	No
template	`string` If passed, Immuta will run SDD with this framework instead of the applied framework on the data source(s). Passing `template` when `dryRun` is `false` will cause an error.	No

Response Parameters

Attribute	Description
id	`string` The unique identifier of the job.
state	`string` The job state. Statuses include `created`, `retry`, `active`, `completed`, `expired`, `cancelled`, or `failed`.
output	`array[string]` Information about the tags applied on the data source, including `diff` (`added` and `removed` tags) and the current state of `allTags` on all columns in the data sources.
