Data filter policy best practices

Data filter policy
best practices

To effectively use
data filter policies
in Access Policy transformations, use the following guidelines as best practices.
In order to provide flexiblity for a variety of use cases, the Access Policy transformation appends a new field called access_policy_filter that indicates whether a row is affected by
data filter policies
. For most use cases, it is appropriate to filter out these rows and the access_policy_filter field from the output.
Use the following best practices when defining Access Policy transformations that include
data filter policies
:
  • Add a Filter between the Access Policy transformation and the Target.
    • On the Incoming Fields tab, includes all fields.
    • On the Filter tab, add a simple filter condition for the field name access_policy_filter with a value of ACCESS_DENIED.
      The following image shows the Filter tab:
      The image shows the Filter tab. The user has selected "Simple" as
                    the filter condition and added ACCESS_DENIED as teh value for the
                    access_policy_filter field name.
  • Select the Target in your mapping.
    • On the Incoming Fields tab, exclude the field named access_policy_filter.
      The following image shows the Incoming Fields tab for the Target:
      The image shows the Incoming Fields tab of the Target. The Include operator
                    includes all fields. The Exclude operator has one field excluded. The field name
                    is access_policy_filter.
