Default Sensitivity Label to be added to migrated files (from Local Network Server)
Hi Experts, We are migrating our file-sharing services from a local network file server to MS Teams/SPO. The requirement is to enable and give default sensitivity labels from the migrated files....

I'm new to Purview, but I guess you could configure the default label on your SPO document libraries? I believe it should apply on the files migrated by Sharegate?
I would personally, but this might not work for you, use the most restrictive label that's suitable on the DL.

I'll see if a metadata change will trigger the label application.

Ellya_Gold Thanks for the input.
This is pretty much the case, although default sensitivity label is applied, the document/s must actually be edited, the saved for this label to kick-in.Guess, this will and still the way forward.
