Masking Engine - dynamically creating Ruleset and Connector using API

  • 1.  Masking Engine - dynamically creating Ruleset and Connector using API

    Posted 06-24-2016 04:15:00 AM
    Hi All,

    Is there any way to create or change working directory for Ruleset and Connector using API in Masking Engine?
    We have number of types .csv files to mask which should be masked with different algorithms.
    I know how to do it from UI.
    But did Masking Engine have API call to create and change working directory in Connector and Ruleset ?

    Regards
    Marcin

    HI Marcin, 
    This can be achieved easily, some things to keep in mind.
    1) Each file type will be a separate file format entity in Delphix, they can reside in same ruleset though.
    2) Masking a same file ( file format) with 2 different algorithms will require 2 rule-sets.
    3) Wildcard Regex Expression can be used to indicate file name/type in ruleset.
    4) Source/Target can be changed at run time using "Multi-Tenant" functionality.

    An API to do create ruleset/ other features dynamically is under development and will start shipping year end.
