Data governance policies are rules that describe the kinds of marketing actions that you are allowed to, or restricted from, performing on data within Experience Platform. The /policies endpoint in the Policy Service API allows you to programmatically manage data governance policies for your organization.

IMPORTANT

Governance policies are not to be confused with access control policies, which determine the specific data attributes that can be accessed by certain Platform users in your organization. Refer to the /policies endpoint guide for the Access Control API for details on how to programmatically manage access control policies.

Getting started

The API endpoint used in this guide is part of the . Before continuing, please review the getting started guide for links to related documentation, a guide to reading the sample API calls in this document, and important information regarding required headers that are needed to successfully make calls to any Experience Platform API.

Property

Description

name

The display name for the policy.

status

The current status of the policy. There are three possible statuses: DRAFT, ENABLED, or DISABLED. By default, only ENABLED policies participate in evaluation. See the overview on policy evaluation for more information.

marketingActionRefs

An array that lists the URIs of all applicable marketing actions for the policy.

description

An optional description that provides further context to the policy鈥檚 use case.

deny

An object which describes the specific data usage labels that the policy鈥檚 associated marketing action is restricted from being performed on. See the section on creating a policy for more information on this property.

Create a custom policy create-policy

In the Policy Service API, a policy is defined by the following:

A reference to a specific marketing action
An expression describing the data usage labels that the marketing action is restricted from being performed against

To satisfy the latter requirement, policy definitions must include a boolean expression regarding the presence of data usage labels. This expression is called a policy expression.

Policy expressions are provided in the form of a deny property within each policy definition. An example of a simple deny object that only checks the presence of a single label would look like the following:

"deny": {
    "label": "C1"
}

However, many policies specify more complex conditions regarding the presence of data usage labels. To support these use cases, you can also include boolean operations to describe your policy expressions. The policy expression object must contain either a label or an operator and operands, but not both. In turn, each operand is also a policy expression object.

For example, in order to define a policy that prohibits a marketing action from being performed on data where C1 OR (C3 AND C7) labels are present, the policy鈥檚 deny property would be specified as:

"deny": {
  "operator": "OR",
  "operands": [
    {"label": "C1"},
    {
      "operator": "AND",
      "operands": [
        {"label": "C3"},
        {"label": "C7"}
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Property

Description

operator

Indicates the conditional relationship between the labels provided in the sibling operands array. Accepted values are:

OR: The expression resolves to true if any of the labels in the operands array are present.
AND: The expression only resolves to true if all of the labels in the operands array are present.

operands

An array of objects, with each object representing either a single label or an additional pair of operator and operands properties. The presence of the labels and/or operations in an operands array resolves to true or false based on the value of its sibling operator property.

label

The name of a single data usage label that applies to the policy.

You can create a new custom policy by making a POST request to the /policies/custom endpoint.

API format

POST /policies/custom

Request

The following request creates a new policy that restricts the marketing action exportToThirdParty from being performed on data containing labels C1 OR (C3 AND C7).

Update a custom policy update

IMPORTANT

You can only update custom policies. If you wish to enable or disable core policies, see the section on updating the list of enabled core policies.

You can update an existing custom policy by providing its ID in the path of a PUT request with a payload that includes the updated form of the policy in its entirety. In other words, the PUT request essentially rewrites the policy.

NOTE

See the section on updating a portion of a custom policy if you only want to update one or more fields for a policy, rather than overwrite it.

API format

PUT /policies/custom/{POLICY_ID}

Parameter

Description

{POLICY_ID}

The id of the policy you want to update.

Request

In this example, the conditions for exporting data to a third party have changed, and now you require the policy that you created to deny this marketing action if C1 AND C5 data labels are present.

The following request updates the existing policy to include the new policy expression. Note that since this request essentially rewrites the policy, all of the fields must be included in the payload, even if some of their values are not being updated.

curl -X PUT \
  https://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/dulepolicy/policies/custom/5c6dacdf685a4913dc48937c \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}' \

          ]
        }
      }'

Property

Description

name

The display name for the policy.

status

marketingActionRefs

An array that lists the URIs of all applicable marketing actions for the policy. The URI for a marketing action is provided under _links.self.href in the response for looking up a marketing action.

description

An optional description that provides further context to the policy鈥檚 use case.

deny

The policy expression that describes the specific data usage labels the policy鈥檚 associated marketing action is restricted from being performed on. See the section on creating a policy for more information on this property.

Response

A successful response returns the details of the updated policy.

Update a portion of a custom policy patch

IMPORTANT

You can only update custom policies. If you wish to enable or disable core policies, see the section on updating the list of enabled core policies.

A specific portion of a policy may be updated using a PATCH request. Unlike PUT requests that rewrite the policy, PATCH requests update only the properties specified in the request body. This is especially useful when you want to enable or disable a policy, as you only need to provide the path to the appropriate property (/status) and its value (ENABLED or DISABLED).

NOTE

Payloads for PATCH requests follow JSON Patch formatting. See the API fundamentals guide for more information on the accepted syntax.

The Policy Service API supports the JSON Patch operations add, remove, and replace, and allows you to combine several updates together into a single call, as shown in the example below.

API format

PATCH /policies/custom/{POLICY_ID}

Parameter

Description

{POLICY_ID}

The id of the policy whose properties you want to update.

Request

The following request uses two replace operations to change the policy status from DRAFT to ENABLED, and to update the description field with a new description.

IMPORTANT

When sending multiple PATCH operations in a single request, they will be processed in the order in which they appear in the array. Ensure that you are sending the requests in the correct order where necessary.

            "value": "New policy description."
          }
        ]'

Delete a custom policy delete

You can delete a custom policy by including its id in the path of a DELETE request.

WARNING

Once deleted, policies cannot be recovered. It is best practice to perform a lookup (GET) request first to view the policy and confirm it is the correct policy you wish to remove.

API format

DELETE /policies/custom/{POLICY_ID}

Parameter

Description

{POLICY_ID}

The ID of the policy you want to delete.

Request

curl -X DELETE \
  https://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/dulepolicy/policies/custom/5c6ddb56eb60ca13dbf8b9a8 \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
  -H 'x-api-key: {API_KEY}' \
  -H 'x-gw-ims-org-id: {ORG_ID}' \
  -H 'x-sandbox-name: {SANDBOX_NAME}'

Response

A successful response returns HTTP status 200 (OK) with a blank body.

You can confirm the deletion by attempting to look up (GET) the policy again. You should receive an HTTP 404 (Not Found) error if the policy has been successfully deleted.
