Integrate MS Purview with ServiceNow for Data Governance
Hi team, We are planning to leverage Microsoft Purview for core Data Governance (DG) capabilities and build the remaining DG functions on ServiceNow. We have two key questions as we design the target‑state architecture: 1. What is the recommended split of DG capabilities between Microsoft Purview and ServiceNow? 2. How should data be shared and synchronized between Purview and ServiceNow to keep governance processes aligned and up to date? Thanks!
Connection Failed Issue scanning Google BigQuery from Microsoft Purview Azure environment
Hi everyone, I am currently setting up a laboratory environment in Microsoft Purview to catalog data from Google BigQuery, but I am encountering a connection error during the testing phase. I have verified that the Service Account has the required permissions in GCP (BigQuery Metadata Viewer and BigQuery Data Viewer) and the JSON key is correctly stored in Azure Key Vault. Has anyone faced a similar issue when connecting BigQuery to Purview recently? I want to rule out if this is a networking issue or a specific configuration requirement for the BigQuery connector that I might be missing. Thanks in advance for your help!

Mail retention - storage of potential duplicate Data
Hi, We are planing to implement retention policies in Microsoft Purview. My question is, where and how often are the files stored? The question is about storage space. For example: A User has a Mailboxsize of 20 GB. The retention policy is: "Retain Mails for 5 years, don't delete after". And another (legacy) policy: "Move Mails to online archive after 1 year". Lets say he now has a full Mailbox with his 20GB. After activation of the online archive and the retention policies, his data gets moved. 10GB are older than one year, so they will move to the online archive. Is this move recognized by the retention policy "Retain Mails for 5 years, don't delete after"? Or does this move count as deleting and the 10GB will remain in the hidden "recoverable items" folder of his primary mailbox? For the rest of the Mails: If he is moving 5GB to a M365 Group Folder and 5GB to a Public Folder, are these moves recognized by the retention policy "Retain Mails for 5 years, don't delete after"? Same question as above, does this move count as deleting and the 10GB will remain in the hidden "recoverable items" folder of his primary mailbox? If all moves are recognized by the system and the Mails are only stored once (probably with a reference to the old folder/mailbox), the used spaces should look like this: Primary Mailbox: 0 GB Online Archive: 10GB M365 Group: 5GB Public Folder: 5GB If the Mails are stored multiple times in the hidden "recoverable items folder", it should look like this: Primary Mailbox: Hidden 20 GB (Mailbox is still full) Online Archive: 10GB M365 Group: 5GB Public Folder: 5GB What is the case here? Thanks.
Microsoft Purview – “Data policy enforcement” toggle missing for AWS S3 source
Hello, In Microsoft Purview, the “Data policy enforcement” toggle does not appear at all for an AWS S3 data source, even though prerequisites seem to be met. Environment Microsoft 365 E5 license Microsoft Purview Data Map enabled AWS S3 registered and scanned successfully Sensitive data classification working Sensitive label schematized option not available - says that it has been moved , but doesn't indicate where Purview Data Policies created and published I have Purview Administrator / Data Source Admin permissions Issue The Data policy enforcement toggle: Does not appear during initial S3 registration Does not appear when editing the S3 data source As a result, Purview data policies cannot be enforced on S3 buckets Expected behavior according to Microsoft documentation indicates that Data policy enforcement must be enabled during or after S3 registration to apply data policies to S3 data. Questions What exact conditions/prerequisites control whether the Data policy enforcement toggle appears for S3? Can the toggle be enabled after initial registration, or only at creation time? If the toggle never appeared, is re-registering the S3 source the only supported fix? Are there any known limitations or portal issues where the toggle is hidden despite E5 licensing and correct permissions? Any clarification on expected behavior or how to surface the toggle would be appreciated.

Hi I'm a fresh user of Purview and after creating policies linked to Exchange, I've enabled the onboarding of computer. Unfortunately, all Defender endpoints have been onboarded, and I've not be able to define which one was concerned. Now, I would like to offboard all those devices from purview and only keep them in Defender without any DLP protection. I tried to remove them with the onboarding script, but my endpoints are still present in Purview. How can I completely remove them? Thanks for your help Yohann
eDiscovery - Issues exploring groups & users related to a hybrid data source
Hi all, first time posting - unusually I could find nothing out there that helped. I work in an organisation has an on-premises domain which syncs to our tenant. I don't manage the domain or the sync, but I'm assured that the settings are vanilla and there are no errors being logged. 99% of our users are hybrid. The tenant is shared across multiple legal entities, so I'm using eDiscovery to fulfil our GDPR subject access requests The issue I am hitting is straightforward. in eDiscovery searches with hybrid users as the data source, I cannot add related objects (manager, direct reports, groups the user is in). The properties are present in Entra, but not visible to Purview, so I'm not investigating sync errors at the moment. For cloud objects, I can see manager, teams, etc. and it works fine. Does anyone have any insights they can share on the "explore and add" mechanics in eDiscovery search data sources? I'm drawing a complete blank on this one. Where should I be looking?
deleted sensitivity label
Hello Everyone I want to identify who deleted a sensitivity label from my information protection blade. Actual scenario is I had one label called Internal-1, it is now disappeared, However if I am trying to create label with same name it says label with same name is already available. In actual that is not showing in GUI. I want to know how to search who deleted the label in Audit. Please advice. Thank you
