Data privacy job rollback

Database changes are captured for actions like jobs and scripts so that the changes can be rolled back. Roll back a data privacy job for when human error inadvertently anonymizes incorrect user information. The rollback de-anonymizes the data from the data privacy job.

Overview

• Rollback is limited to a few days, per the configured expiry duration of the RollbackContext of the new RollbackType REDACT. After expiration of the RollbackContext associated with a data privacy job, the rollback function is no longer available for that job.

  • A rollback context from de-anonymization is saved for three days by default.

  • The default expiry time can be set to a value greater than one by the data privacy administrator in the RollbackContext of the new RollbackType REDACT. Set the value in the Glide system property glide.rollback.expiration_days_redact. See Roll back and delete recovery.

    To learn more about adding or creating a system property, see Add a system property.

• Rollback is available for data privacy jobs that are in a Completed, Canceled, or Error state.

• For every successful sys_user de-anonymization job which is configured with a data privacy policy with rollback support turned on, a rollback context is created. There can be at most one rollback context per data privacy job.
