If you're\nusing Cloud Shell, you can use the Cloud Shell Editor to create the\nfile. To launch the editor, click edit **Open Editor** launch on the toolbar of the Cloud Shell window.\n\n\nBefore using any of the request data,\nmake the following replacements:\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e: Your Google Cloud project ID. Project IDs are alphanumeric strings, like `my-project`.\n\n\nHTTP method and URL:\n\n```\nPOST https://dlp.googleapis.com/v2/projects/PROJECT_ID/content:inspect\n```\n\n\nRequest JSON body:\n\n```\n{\n \"item\": {\n \"value\": \"My phone number is (800) 555-0123.\"\n },\n \"inspectConfig\": {\n \"infoTypes\": [\n {\n \"name\": \"PHONE_NUMBER\"\n },\n {\n \"name\": \"US_TOLLFREE_PHONE_NUMBER\"\n }\n ],\n \"minLikelihood\": \"POSSIBLE\",\n \"limits\": {\n \"maxFindingsPerItem\": 0\n },\n \"includeQuote\": true\n }\n}\n```\n\nTo send your request, expand one of these options:\n\n#### curl (Linux, macOS, or Cloud Shell)\n\n| **Note:** The following command assumes that you have logged in to the `gcloud` CLI with your user account by running [`gcloud init`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/init) or [`gcloud auth login`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/auth/login) , or by using [Cloud Shell](/shell/docs), which automatically logs you into the `gcloud` CLI . You can check the currently active account by running [`gcloud auth list`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/auth/list).\n\n\nSave the request body in a file named `inspect-request.json`,\nand execute the following command:\n\n```\ncurl -X POST \\\n -H \"Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)\" \\\n -H \"x-goog-user-project: PROJECT_ID\" \\\n -H \"Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8\" \\\n -d @inspect-request.json \\\n \"https://dlp.googleapis.com/v2/projects/PROJECT_ID/content:inspect\"\n```\n\n#### PowerShell (Windows)\n\n| **Note:** The following command assumes that you have logged in to the `gcloud` CLI with your user account by running [`gcloud init`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/init) or [`gcloud auth login`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/auth/login) . You can check the currently active account by running [`gcloud auth list`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/auth/list).\n\n\nSave the request body in a file named `inspect-request.json`,\nand execute the following command:\n\n```\n$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token\n$headers = @{ \"Authorization\" = \"Bearer $cred\"; \"x-goog-user-project\" = \"PROJECT_ID\" }\n\nInvoke-WebRequest `\n -Method POST `\n -Headers $headers `\n -ContentType: \"application/json; charset=utf-8\" `\n -InFile inspect-request.json `\n -Uri \"https://dlp.googleapis.com/v2/projects/PROJECT_ID/content:inspect\" | Select-Object -Expand Content\n```\n\nYou should receive a JSON response similar to the following:\n\n```\n{\n \"result\": {\n \"findings\": [\n {\n \"quote\": \"(800) 555-0123\",\n \"infoType\": {\n \"name\": \"US_TOLLFREE_PHONE_NUMBER\"\n },\n \"likelihood\": \"LIKELY\",\n \"location\": {\n \"byteRange\": {\n \"start\": \"19\",\n \"end\": \"33\"\n },\n \"codepointRange\": {\n \"start\": \"19\",\n \"end\": \"33\"\n }\n },\n \"createTime\": \"2022-09-23T01:53:05.303Z\",\n \"findingId\": \"2022-09-23T01:53:05.306348Z5328915744504121862\"\n }\n ]\n }\n}\n```\n\nClean up\n--------\n\n\nTo avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account for\nthe resources used on this page, delete the Google Cloud project with the\nresources.\n\n### Delete the project\n\nIf you created a new project for this quickstart, the easiest way to prevent\nadditional charges is to delete the project.\n\n| **Caution** : Deleting a project has the following effects:\n|\n| - **Everything in the project is deleted.** If you used an existing project for the tasks in this document, when you delete it, you also delete any other work you've done in the project.\n| - **Custom project IDs are lost.** When you created this project, you might have created a custom project ID that you want to use in the future. To preserve the URLs that use the project ID, such as an `appspot.com` URL, delete selected resources inside the project instead of deleting the whole project.\n|\n|\n| If you plan to explore multiple architectures, tutorials, or quickstarts, reusing projects\n| can help you avoid exceeding project quota limits.\n1. Delete a Google Cloud project: \n\n```\ngcloud projects delete PROJECT_ID\n```\n\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\n### Revoke your credentials\n\n-\n Optional: Revoke credentials from the gcloud CLI.\n\n ```bash\n gcloud auth revoke\n ```\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\n- To get started with inspecting text and images for sensitive data, see\n [How-to guides](/sensitive-data-protection/docs/how-to).\n\n- To better understand inspection, redaction, infoTypes, and likelihood, see\n [Concepts](/sensitive-data-protection/docs/concepts).\n\n- Learn more about the [DLP API](/sensitive-data-protection/docs/reference/rest/v2)."]]
