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.

Quick Start

In order to use this library, you first need to go through the following steps:

  1. Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
  2. Enable the DLP API.
  3. Setup Authentication.

Installation

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.

Mac/Linux

pip install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
source <your-env>/bin/activate
<your-env>/bin/pip install google-cloud-dlp

Windows

pip install virtualenv
virtualenv <your-env>
<your-env>\Scripts\activate
<your-env>\Scripts\pip.exe install google-cloud-dlp

from google.cloud import dlp_v2

client = dlp_v2.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)
