Pre-Assessment ​

The Pre-Assessment module allows users to perform a one-time analysis to quickly understand their data environment. Users can specify which folders or files to include or exclude, assign a name to the assessment, and generate an immediate overview of data distribution, storage usage, and file composition.

Configuration ​
