Drive DLP and Chat DLP are available to Cloud Identity Premium users who also have a Google Workspace licence. For Drive DLP, the license must include the Drive audit log.

You configure DLP rules to protect sensitive content. To keep DLP rules working to protect your content, make sure your DLP configuration settings stay within the following recommended size limits. Some of these limits are not enforced, but it's recommended you stay within the limits stated in this article. If you exceed these limits, your DLP rule might not work.

This limit is accrued after you save the rule and it's compiled by the system. If you reach this limit, you can't save additional settings for the rule. For example, this limit can be exceeded if you have a very large description or a long list of conditions.

In general, you should not create very large rules. To avoid large rules:

  • Use short rule descriptions
  • Use word lists where possible
  • Avoid using long lists of conditions
