Differences between profiling a single data resource and standard profiling
Single-resource profiling differs from standard profiling in the following ways:
- Single-resource profiling is available only in project view.
- A single-resource discovery configuration lets you profile only one data resource. You can't add schedules to the configuration, but you can edit the catch-all schedule. You can't add filters to the schedule.
- You can create many single-resource discovery configurations for different data resources in a project. For each data resource, you can have only one single-resource discovery configuration.
Create a single-resource discovery configuration
To create a single-resource discovery configuration, see the instructions for the data that you want to profile:
- Profile BigQuery data in a single project
- Profile Cloud SQL data in a single project
- Profile Cloud Storage data in a single project
- Profile Vertex AI data in a single project
- Discovery for Amazon S3 data
When you're prompted to select the scope of the scan, select the single-resource option, and then enter the details of the resource.
Profile regeneration
Sensitive Data Protection reprofiles data as described in Frequency of data profile generation . You can customize the profiling frequency in your scan configuration by creating a schedule . To force the discovery service to reprofile your data, see Force a reprofile operation .
