Severity

Low

Some parts of the output code are omitted for clarity reasons.

Description

This is EWI occurs when a MASKING POLICY is created and a role or privilege must be linked to it so the data masking could work properly.

Code Example

Input code

ALTER TABLE tableName
ALTER COLUMN columnName
ADD MASKED WITH (FUNCTION = 'partial(1, "xxxxx", 1)');

Output code:

!!!RESOLVE EWI!!! /*** SSC-EWI-TS0057 - MASKING ROLE MUST BE DEFINED PREVIOUSLY BY THE USER ***/!!!
CREATE OR REPLACE MASKING POLICY "partial_1_xxxxx_1" AS
(val STRING)
RETURNS STRING ->
CASE
WHEN current_role() IN ('YOUR_DEFINED_ROLE_HERE')
THEN val
ELSE LEFT(val, 1) || 'xxxxx' || RIGHT(val, 1)
END;

ALTER TABLE IF EXISTS tableName MODIFY COLUMN columnName!!!RESOLVE EWI!!! /*** SSC-EWI-TS0056 - A MASKING POLICY WAS CREATED AS SUBSTITUTE FOR MASKED WITH ***/!!!  SET MASKING POLICY "partial_1_xxxxx_1";

As shown on line 6, there is a placeholder where the defined roles can be placed. There is room for one or several values separated by commas. Also, here, the use of single qoutes is mandatory for each of the values.
