Cloud Data Loss Prevention - global vs local settings

Three questions about Google's Data Loss Prevention API:

  1. There are global types and local types. What happens if I use the global types? Does it use a combination of all local types?
  2. When one should use local types, and when global types?
  3. Where can I find an example of config file for using local types?

Have a look to the REST API. The inspect job config need a list of types. You simply have to provide the list of infotype that you want to find.

This list of infotypes is a list of built in infotype with common PII that you can find. Some are generic (global) others are specific to a country (special format). You can also create your custom info type to detect non standard/ non built in info type.
