Editing the schema for EDM-based classification manually

If you want to make changes to your EDM schema, for example the edm.xml file, such as changing which fields are used for EDM-based classification, follow these steps:

Tip

You can change your EDM schema and sensitive information table source file to take advantage of configurable match. When configured, EDM will ignore case differences and some delimiters when it evaluates an item. This makes defining your xml schema and your sensitive data files easier. To learn more see, Using the caseInsensitive and ignoredDelimiters fields.

  1. Edit your edm.xml file (this file is discussed in the Create the schema for exact data match based sensitive information types.

  2. Connect to Security & Compliance PowerShell.

  3. To update your database schema, run the following command:

    Set-DlpEdmSchema -FileData ([System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes('.\\edm.xml')) -Confirm:$true
    

    You're prompted to confirm as follows:

    Confirm

    Are you sure you want to perform this action?

    EDM Schema for the data store 'patientrecords' will be updated.

    [Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [?] Help (default is "Y"):

    Tip

    If you want your changes to occur without confirmation, don't use -Confirm:$true in Step 3.

    Note

    It can take between 10-60 minutes to update the EDMSchema with additions. The update must complete before you execute steps that use the additions.

Removing the schema for EDM-based classification manually

If you want to remove the schema you're using for EDM-based classification, follow these steps:

  2. Run the following command, substituting the data store name of "patient records" with the one you want to remove (using the patientrecords store as an example):

    Remove-DlpEdmSchema -Identity 'patientrecords'
    

    You're prompted to confirm the following message:

    Confirm

    Are you sure you want to perform this action?

    EDM Schema for the data store 'patientrecords' will be removed.

    [Y] Yes [A] Yes to All [N] No [L] No to All [?] Help (default is "Y"):
