Anonymize Data with Privacy Dynamics

This GitHub Action allows you to anonymize sensitive data using Privacy Dynamics, an online service that uses state-of-the-art algorithms to ensure privacy and anonymity of production data. This action will help you protect sensitive production data in dev, test, and preview environments without disclosing customer data.

Prerequisites

This action requires the following:

• An active Privacy Dynamics account. Don't have one? You can get one here.
• Source data stored in a Postgresql, accessible to the Privacy Dynamics service.
• A configured Project within your Privacy Dynamics account using your Postgresql data source as a Origin Connection.
• Machine-to-machine (API) credentials for your account. You can generate the required client ID and secret within the web UI.
