General Guidelines

In data lookup commands, syntax is not case-sensitive, and line breaks and extra spaces are ignored.

Syntax is case-insensitive

All syntax elements and variables are case-insensitive. This includes <text> search terms in double quotes. For example, if you want to detect emails sent to the Sales department, then you can set <text> to "Sales", "sales" or "SALES". All will return a True value if CA DataMinder detects a member of the Sales team.

Command layout

When entering Data Lookup commands in the Policy Editor, you can add line breaks and extra spaces to make commands easier to read and maintain, for example:

(msgattr WHERE msgimpactkb > 1000) 
  AND 
  (userattr WITH any %recipient% WHERE Team CONTAINS "Securities")
