    • Scan for personally identifiable or information sensitive data before creating datasets. You can turn this off if you prefer.

      Note:

      If you opt in, your data is scanned for sensitive data like names or email addresses using vault service. After the scan, records will be highlighted and give you an option to anonymize them. You can also choose to scan the dataset after it is generated.
11. Select Generate dataset.
    The dataset is added to the data assets.

What to do next

After your dataset is added to the data catalog, you can choose to create a smaller dataset by creating a derived dataset or adding a ground truth to your existing data set. For more information, see Create a derived dataset or Add a ground truth to each dataset record.
