Does SharePoint Classic sites support Sensitivity Labels?
Hi there,
I am implementing Sensitivity Labels for an organization. They have a couple of SharePoint Classic sites that are required to be labelled. These sites have the old UI and as a result have no Site Information option to choose a label.
Does anyone know if we can apply a label to classic sites from Admin Center or using PowerShell?

My Second Answer: Yes, you can apply Sensitivity Labels to SharePoint Classic sites using both the Admin Center and PowerShell:
- Admin Center:
- Navigate to the SharePoint Admin Center.
- Select the site you want to label.
- Click on the Policies tab.
- Under Sensitivity, click Edit and choose the label to assign to the site
- PowerShell:
- Ensure Sensitivity Labels are enabled.
- Create an Azure AD App Registration with permissions to assign sensitivity labels for SharePoint sites.
- Enable metered APIs and services in Microsoft Graph.
- Run the script provided in this article

- Admin Center:
My First Answer: Migrate Classic sites to Modern as soon as possible. Talk to business, force them to understand, that they should not have Classic sites anymore. There is no hard stop for Classic site, but you are loosing several productivity features. Is there a time line to retire SharePoint online library classic experience? - Microsoft Q&A
