Database Navigation

Database List View

Database List View

Selecting Database List from the Review menu lists all the SQL Server and MS Access Databases uploaded in the review population.

Database List View

Database Actions

Once you are on the database list view you can perform the following actions:

View Schemas
Go to the read only schema view.
Configuring Mapping
Configure and finalize one or more views of PII.
Map Entities (can be bulk action)
Only, selectable if all views are already mapped, finalize, or marked for deletion. Will map all entities for finalized views and unmap entities for views marked for deletion.

Fields

  • Common Table Filter
    • Filter/search common component
    • Select one or more databases to “Map Entities”
  • Fields
    • Default:
      • File Name
      • Data Base Name
      • Size of File
      • Number of Schemas
      • Number of Tables
      • Number of Views
        • Draft
        • Ready to Map (Final)
        • Ready to Unmap (Delete)
        • Mapped
    • Selectable:
      • SHA256
      • SHA1
      • MD5
      • Modified Date
      • Creation Date
      • etc…

Mapping Progress Bars

  • Mapping
    • Loading Database
    • Create View(s)
    • Exporting View(s)
    • Adding Entities
    • Entities Mapped
  • Unmapping
    • Deleting Views
    • Removing Mapped Entities
    • Views Deleted

We believe mapping will take awhile. We will need to alert them to this effect. Ideally our progress bar would give them an estimated time.

Database Schemas

This is the screen you will arrive at if you select view schemas from the list view. This is a view only screen that will allow you to explore the database structure. Database List View

Database Actions

Once you are on the database list view you can perform the following actions:

Select Schemas
Allows the user to select the schema they would want to explore.
View Sample Table Data
The user would be able to click on the table to pop up a table full of randomly sampled data.

Viewable Fields

  • Schemas
  • Tables
    • Count of rows that exist in each table
  • Fields
    • Field definitions (type)
  • Relationships

Database Views

When creating a new view you will arrive at this screen. Database List View

View Actions

Create View
Create new draft view
Edit View
Edit an existing view
Copy View (active if the view is mapped)
Copy and Edit Existing View
Delete View (active if the view is mapped)
Mark view to be deleted and unmapped
View Entities (active if view is mapped)
View Mapped Entities -> brings you to a filtered raw entity view (only will work if entities are currently mapped)

View Statuses

  • Draft
  • Final
  • Delete
  • Mapped
While mapping and unmapping actions other than view only are disabled. No changes can be made to views during this time.

Create View

Database List View

Actions

Create View (Should this really be here?)
Configure a new view
Save Draft
Save a draft of the current view I am working on.
Finalize
Finalize the current view I am working on by validating the view and setting the status to ready to map.
  1. Success - popup showing list of attributes and their associated PII field
  2. Failure - popup showing list of issues.
Validate
Validates view and points out anything the needs to be completed before you can finalize. Validates no conflicting relationships, no unrelated tables, all attributes associated with a field.
Select VIew (Should this really be here)
Select a view to edit from the left hand side.

Statuses

  • Draft
  • Final
  • Delete
  • Mapped

Configuration Features

  • Select one or more schemas
  • Select one of more tables
  • View Sample Table Data
  • Delete Relationships
  • Create Relationships
  • Select Attributes
  • Show original Relationships
  • Associate Attributes with PII Fields

Please add total row counts to each table Please add join inner, outer, left, right to the relationship config. We need to show that we will recommend mapping/PII associations

View Table Sample

We should add “Randomly Sampled”
