public sealed class ExcludeInfoTypes : IMessage<ExcludeInfoTypes>, IEquatable<ExcludeInfoTypes>, IDeepCloneable<ExcludeInfoTypes>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention v2 API class ExcludeInfoTypes.
InfoType list in ExclusionRule rule drops a finding when it overlaps or
contained within with a finding of an infoType from this list. For
example, for InspectionRuleSet.info_types containing "PHONE_NUMBER"andexclusion_rulecontainingexclude_info_types.info_types` with
"EMAIL_ADDRESS" the phone number findings are dropped if they overlap
with EMAIL_ADDRESS finding.
That leads to "555-222-2222@example.org" to generate only a single
finding, namely email address.
