Glean sensitive findings rely on Google’s DLP API for data classification for info type scanning. If you’re only using regex and term detection, you can skip these instructions. Glean customers deployed on AWS must create or use an existing GCP account to run infotype scanning. You can use the Glean console to add a GCP DLP API key, which is then securely stored within your AWS deployment and is used to make API calls.

​
​Prerequisites

  • You must be running Glean on AWS
  • You must create or have an existing GCP account and project
  • Your GCP project must link to a billing account

​
​Configure your GCP Project and Connect the DLP Service to Glean

  1. From your GCP project, enable the DLP API using the link:
    ​https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/api/dlp.googleapis.com/overview?project=[project_ID]
    Replace the [project_ID] with your GCP project ID.
  2. From the service accounts page, create a service account by selecting the project, then selecting create service account.
  3. From the IAM page, grant the DLP administrator IAM role access to the service account.
  4. From the service accounts page, generate an API key and download it to your computer.
  5. Upload the API key you created in the step above to Glean’s Sensitive content reporting page.
