    Hello,

     

    Probably what you are looking is an EDM profile. With this method you can create a profile based on structured data.

    Once done, instead of add it as detection, you would need to add as exception to the policy.

    Check these links below for more details:

    Admin guide also provides lots of info about it:

    hello,

     unfortunately, EDM is not available as exception rule.

    If your list is more or less static, you may use a Keyword rule as exception and copy/paste your list of data into it.

    if you want this list of data to be updated on regular basis and in automatic way, you will have to update DLP DB with a script of your own.

     

     Regards.
