Embedding a Watermark
Before producing a file with an embedded watermark, note that there are conditions that must be met. For more information, see Watermarking a Dataset.
Once these conditions are met, the watermark will be embedded in columns de-identified using a Regular Expression Text Generator rule, a Regular Expression Number Generator rule or a Hash Text rule.
To produce a file with an embedded watermark:
Create a PDD either from the Protected Data Domain page, while running a Batch Job, creating a Data Flow Job or a POD job.
Ensure the Embed Watermarks checkbox is selected when the PDD is created.
The metadata properties specified when the PDD is created will become associated with the watermark. These values will be displayed when a file from this PDD is investigated.
Run a Job in the PDD, either by proceeding with the Run Job process, using an existing Job or by configuring a Data Flow or POD pipeline.
During this Job run, any output file produced using a Policy with a Regular Expression Text Generator rule, a Regular Expression Number Generator rule or a Hash Text rule will contain a watermark.
