How classification rules work with xls-files stored in blob storage
Hi ChandruS , is there any further documentation on how this works?
Hi DebbieH,
Classification rules are applied based on the RegEx pattern using data pattern and/or column pattern.
Distinct match threshold is the total number of "distinct data values" that need to be found in a column before the scanner runs the data pattern on it. Minimum match threshold is the minimum percentage of data value matches in a column that must be found by the scanner for the classification to be applied.

Hi AniMukherjee ,
Thank you. We are trying to understand what is classified as data and as a column in an xls file?

Hi DebbieH,
Currently, we don't provide details on what's classified as data and as a column in a file. We will keep this requirement in mind as part of future improvement.
