Python Client for DLP API (Alpha)
DLP API: The Google Data Loss Prevention API provides methods for detection of privacy-sensitive fragments in text, images, and Google Cloud Platform storage repositories.
In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:
Install this library in a virtualenv using pip. virtualenv is a tool to create isolated Python environments. The basic problem it addresses is one of dependencies and versions, and indirectly permissions.
With virtualenv, it's possible to install this library without needing system install permissions, and without clashing with the installed system dependencies.
pip install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
source <your-env>/bin/activate
<your-env>/bin/pip install google-cloud-dlppip install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
<your-env>\Scripts\activate
<your-env>\Scripts\pip.exe install google-cloud-dlpfrom google.cloud import dlp_v2beta1
client = dlp_v2beta1.DlpServiceClient()
name = 'EMAIL_ADDRESS'
info_types_element = {'name': name}
info_types = [info_types_element]
inspect_config = {'info_types': info_types}
type_ = 'text/plain'
value = 'My email is example@example.com.'
items_element = {'type': type_, 'value': value}
items = [items_element]
response = client.inspect_content(inspect_config, items)- Read the Client Library Documentation for DLP API API to see other available methods on the client.
