Auto classifcation policy - Sensitivity Lables - SIT - Fabric Delta Tables
Hello BanuMurali,
Automatically apply sensitivity labels is only possible via Inheritance from data sources or downstream inheritance. Refer to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/fabric/governance/protected-sensitivity-labels#how-protected-labels-work-in-fabric-and-power-bi
For example, if auto labeling is applied for Azure Synapse Analytics or Azure SQL Database as data sources, the data remains classified when brought into Power BI. Or, say if the Power BI report has the label applied manually, dashboard inherits this applied label automatically.
Hope that clarifies.
Refer to: Sensitivity label inheritance from data sources in Power BI - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
Sensitivity label downstream inheritance in Power BI - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn
Also refer to: Set or remove sensitivity labels programmatically with admin APIs - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn if you are looking to programmatically set/remove labels for large volumes of data.
Hope this helps!

MicrosoftHi BanuMurali ,
Thanks for the clarification. Sensitivity labels in Microsoft Purview Data Map are currently in preview. While auto-labeling is supported for some data sources, Fabric as a data source is not supported for auto-labeling at this time.

Key points to note:
- Custom Sensitive Information Types (SITs) are not supported in Purview Data Map currently.
- For supported sources, only auto-labeling is available; manual labeling is not supported at this time.

Thanks for clarification !!
Can you please let me know, currently is there any road map/ immediate release for Fabric as a source to support auto labelling polices in MS Purview.
We are planning to implement auto labelling for Fabric assets in Purview Unified catalog using data map scan. It would be more helpful for us to plan accordingly.
