Performing scans on collections

Required workspace permission: Run collection scan

When you first connect to a MongoDB database, Tonic Structural performs a scan to determine the available fields in each collection, the field types, and how prevalent the fields are. It performs this scan at the same time as the initial sensitivity scan.

On Privacy Hub, the Latest Collection Scan table shows the most recent scans on each scanned collection.

The Build Schema option runs a new scan on the collection.

When the source database has a new collection, then on Collection View, you are prompted to run a scan either on that collection or on all collections.
