What’s new in the documentation for Azure Information Protection, October 2017
What is Azure Information Protection? - Updated the Resources for Azure Information Protection section, for a link to the end user adoption guide, and an update for the Ignite 2017 sessions. Applications that support Azure Rights Management data protection - Updated the supported applications table, for Office Mobile for Android, which now supports editing protected documents in addition to viewing them. Also updated the supported solutions table with a new entry for Forcepoint DLP. Frequently asked questions for Azure Information Protection - New entries:- I see Azure Information Protection is listed as an available cloud app for conditional access—how does this work?
- What’s the difference between labels in Azure Information Protection and labels in Office 365?
- An important note that automatic classification and user-defined permissions should not be configured for the same label.
- New section, How automatic or recommended labels are applied . This new section makes it easier to distinguish the differences in behavior for the general availability (GA) version of the client, and the current preview version of the client that is also used with the scanner. Note that the scanner requires conditions to be configured as automatic.
- Instructions to install the client for users are moved to their own page: Install the Azure Information Protection client for users
- For custom configurations , the Enable recommended classification in Outlook option incorrectly had the preview disclaimer removed last month, and is now reinstated.
- For document tracking , added a note to explain why you might not see the Admin icon, and how to alternatively switch to Administrator mode by using a direct link.
- For file types supported, for native protection, added file name extensions for Visio. This support was introduced with the latest GA version of the client. This section is also updated with the information that for text-based files, the Azure Information Protection viewer has a maximum supported file size of 20 MB.
- For file types excluded , added two new sections: Files that cannot be protected by default , and Limitations for container files, such as .zip files .
