An entity type is what DryvIQ is detecting. The DryvIQ Platform comes with preinstalled entity types that cover a wide range of data, but you also have the option to create custom entity types. Entity types are assigned to a category that identifies the type of data being detected and a match type that identifies how the data is being detected. This page provides a high-level overview to help you understand entity types. To learn more about a specific match type, refer to the DryvIQ Platform documentation page for that specific match type.
