# Manually indicating whether a column is sensitive

You can also manually indicate that a column is sensitive or not sensitive.

For example, the sensitivity scan might incorrectly identify a column as sensitive. Or a column might contain data that you consider sensitive but that does not match a detected sensitivity type.

When you manually change a column from not sensitive to sensitive, Structural marks the sensitivity detection as full confidence.

To change the sensitivity, you can prompt the Structural Agent. For example:

* `Change all datetime columns to be not sensitive.`
* `Change the Occupation column to be sensitive.`

For information on other ways to change whether a column is sensitive:

* For **Privacy Hub**, go to [Privacy Hub](/app/generation/privacy-hub.md#privacy-hub-protection-status-flag-sensitive).
* For **Database View**, go to:
  * For a single column, [Configuring an individual column](/app/generation/database-view/database-view-configure-column.md#database-view-column-config-single-sensitivity)
  * For multiple selected columns, [Configuring multiple columns](/app/generation/database-view/database-view-configure-bulk.md#database-view-column-config-multi-sensitivity)
* For **Table View**, go to [Table View](/app/generation/table-view.md#table-view-configure-column-sensitivity).

The Structural API also provides [endpoints to designate columns as sensitive or not sensitive](/app/api/quick-start-guide/tonic-api-column-sensitivity.md).

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.tonic.ai/app/generation/identify-sensitive-data/sensitivity-set-manually.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
