Allow Data Ingestion from Specific Country of Origin

We can allow certain country as a valid COO(Country of Origin) by uploading customized legal configuration file into cloud storage. It will override the default configuration for legal service.

Configuration Steps

Following steps can be taken to allow a specific COO:

  1. Refer to following example and create a Legal_COO.json file:
   [{
  "name": "Brazil",
  "alpha2": "BR",
  "numeric": 76,
  "residencyRisk": "Client consent required",
  "typesNotApplyDataResidency": ["Transferred Data"]
   }]

To obtain the proper alpha, numeric code, and data types without applying data residency constraints (alpha2, numeric, typesNotApplyDataResidency fields), please refer to the Legal Service Default Configuration then enter the appropriate restriction level in the residencyRisk field.

Residency Risk

Usually we set residencyRisk to Client consent required when we are allowing data from this country as an exception, but please consult with business if this is the correct value here.

  1. Go to cloud storage location where we store legal config file. For example Azure resource group - dev dp1:

  1. Go to the legal-service-azure-configuration container and upload the Legal_COO.json file created in step 1, replace the existing item with the same name if existed:

Make sure filename matches exactly

Please make sure the file name is exactly the same with the existing file Legal_COO.json, it's case-sensitive.
