## Dataset Description

- **Homepage:** [https://github.com/pixie-io/pixie/tree/main/src/datagen/pii/privy](https://github.com/pixie-io/pixie/tree/main/src/datagen/pii/privy)

### Dataset Summary
A synthetic PII dataset generated using [Privy](https://github.com/pixie-io/pixie/tree/main/src/datagen/pii/privy), a tool which parses OpenAPI specifications and generates synthetic request payloads, searching for keywords in API schema definitions to select appropriate data providers. Generated API payloads are converted to various protocol trace formats like JSON and SQL to approximate the data developers might encounter while debugging applications. 

This labelled PII dataset consists of protocol traces (JSON, SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL), HTML, and XML) generated from OpenAPI specifications and includes 60+ PII types. 

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

Named Entity Recognition (NER) and PII classification.
