    "classification_profile_name": "db1.sch.sensitive_data_detection_profile"
  },
  "classification_result": {
    "col1_name": {
      "alternates": [],
      "recommendation": {
        "confidence": "HIGH",
        "coverage": 1,
        "details": [],
        "privacy_category": "QUASI_IDENTIFIER",
        "semantic_category": "DATE_OF_BIRTH",
        "tags": [
          {
            "tag_applied": true,
            "tag_name": "snowflake.core.semantic_category",

          },
          {

            "tag_name": "snowflake.core.privacy_category",
            "tag_value": "QUASI_IDENTIFIER"
          }
        ]
      },
      "valid_value_ratio": 1
    }
  }

Where:

classification_profile_config

If automatic classification is configured, contains the fully qualified name of the configuration profile that was used to generate the classification results.

classification_result

Provides details about each column that was classified.

alternates

Provides information about each tag and value to consider other than the recommended tag.

recommendation

Provides information about each tag and value as the primary choice based on the classification process.

These values can appear in both the alternates and recommendation:

classifier_name

The fully-qualified name of the custom classification instance that was used to tag the classified column.

This field only appears when using a custom classification instance as the source of the tag to set on a column.

confidence

Provides one of the following values: HIGH, MEDIUM, or LOW. This value indicates the relative confidence that Snowflake has based upon the column sampling process and how the column data aligns with how Snowflake classifies data.

coverage

Provides the percent of sampled cell values that match the rules for a particular category.

details

Provides the fields and values that refer to a geographical tag value for the SEMANTIC_CATEGORY tag.

privacy_category

Provides the privacy category tag value.

The possible values are IDENTIFIER, QUASI-IDENTIFIER and SENSITIVE.

semantic_category

Provides the semantic category tag value.

For possible tag values, see System tags and categories and System tags and categories.

tags

Provides information about the tags that were applied to the column as a result of the classification process.

valid_value_ratio

Provides the ratio of valid values in the sample size. Invalid values include NULL, an empty string, and a string with more than 256 characters.

Examples

Return the sensitive data classification result for a table:

SELECT SYSTEM$GET_CLASSIFICATION_RESULT('hr.tables.empl_info');
