Why data anonymization is not working ?
Question.
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but this configuration is keeping the phone field value as the same as the source
{
"objects": [
{
"operation": "Upsert",
"externalId": "FirstName;LastName;Email",
"mockFields": [
{
"name": "Phone",
"pattern": "phone",
"excludedRegex": "",
"includedRegex": ""
},
{
"name": "Fax",
"pattern": "phone",
"excludedRegex": "*",
"includedRegex": ""
}
],
"master": false,
"query": "SELECT Id, Name, updateable_true FROM Contact"
}
]
}
It does not modfy phone on the Target.
Why ?
Answer.
- Generally, your anonymization configuration is correct.
But you forgot to set updateWithMockData=true:
{
"objects": [
...
],
"master": false,
"query": "SELECT Id, Name, updateable_true FROM Contact",
"updateWithMockData": true
}
- We suggest do not set includeRegex or excludeRegex properties to empty value: "includedRegex": "", the better whould be to remove this.
So the final configuration:
{
"objects": [
{
"operation": "Upsert",
"externalId": "FirstName;LastName;Email",
"mockFields": [
{
"name": "Phone",
"pattern": "phone",
"excludedRegex": "",
"includedRegex": ""
},
{
"name": "Fax",
"pattern": "phone",
"excludedRegex": "*"
}
],
"master": false,
"query": "SELECT Id, Name, updateable_true FROM Contact",
"updateWithMockData": true
}
]
}
