When you first create a dataset, Tonic Textual displays a single list of all of the entity types that it can detect.
As you add and remove files, Textual updates the entity types list to indicate the detected and not detected entity types.
At the top of the dataset details view, the Sensitive words tile shows the total number of sensitive values in the dataset that Textual detected.
As Textual processes files, it identifies the entity types that are detected and not detected.
The entity type list starts with the detected entity types. For each detected entity type, Textual displays:
The number of detected values that are marked as this type in the output file. Excluded values are not included in the count.
The selected handling option.
Whether there are configured added or excluded values.
For each detected entity type, to view a sample of up to 10 of the detected values , click the view icon next to the value count.
The entities list contains the full list of detected values for an entity type.
To display the entities list, from the value preview, click Open Entities Manager.
When you display the entities list, the entity type that you previewed the values for is selected by default.
To change the selected entity type, from the dropdown at the top left, select the entity type to view values for.
A detected value might match multiple entity types.
For example, a telephone number might match both the Phone Number and Numeric Value entity types.
Every value is only counted once, for the entity type that it is assigned in the output file.
By default, a detected value is assigned the entity type that it most closely matches. For our example, the telephone number value most closely matches the Phone Number entity type, and so by default is included in the Phone Number count and values list.
If the entity type is turned off, or the value is excluded, then Textual moves the value to the next matching type.
In our example, if you set the handling type for Phone Number to Off, then the telephone number value is added to the count and values list for the Numeric Value entity type.
The entities list groups the entities by the file and, if relevant, the page where they were detected.
For each value, the list includes:
The original value.
The original value in the context of its surrounding text.
The redacted or synthesized value in the context of its surrounding text, based on the selected handling option.
Below the list of detected entity types is the Entity types not found list, which contains the list of entity types that Textual did not detect in the files.
You can filter the entity types list by text in the type name or description. The filter applies to both the detected and undetected entity types.
To filter the types, in the filter field, begin to type text that is in the entity type name or description.
