Check if a phrase or file is triggered with your classifications by running the classification tester.

Classifications with the following conditions can't be tested:

  • Exact Data Matching

  • Third-party tags

  • Registered documents

  • Ignored text

  • Content fingerprinting

  • Manual classifications

  1. In ePO - On-prem, select Menu → Data Protection → Classification. Click the Classification Tester tab.

  2. In the Classifications List area, select the classifications you want to test. Classifications that can't be tested appear as grayed out.

  3. To enter text, either click Browse to select a file from your network, or select Plain Text to enter text manually.

    Maximum file size for upload is 50 MB.

    Note

    The Plain Text field has a limit of 1024 characters. If the text containing sensitive content appears beyond this limit, the text gets truncated and the classification doesn't show any match.

  4. In Time-out test after, select the amount of time the classification tester attempts to provide results.

  5. Click Start Test.

The results of the test appear in the Test Results area. Text that is triggered is highlighted.
