Schema management settings

Responding to schema changes

Schema changes include:

• Sensitive schema changes, which if not addressed can result in data leakage. These changes include new tables and columns, and changes to data types.

• Notifications, which Structural can handle automatically during each data generation. These include removed tables and columns.

Under Block Data Generation on Schema Changes, select how Structural responds when there are unaddressed changes to the database schema.

The options are:

• Do Not Block - With this option, schema changes never block data generation. Structural ignores sensitive schema changes, and automatically handles notifications during data generation.

• Block On Sensitive Changes - Indicates to only block data generation if there are sensitive schema changes. Structural automatically handles notifications during data generation.

• Block On All Changes - For this option, if there are any unaddressed schema changes at all, either sensitive changes or notifications, data generation fails.
