Microsoft 365 Copilot not showing up as location in DLP

Hi,

 

I am working on implementing security measures for Microsoft Copilot in a client environment. I want to create a DLP policy to not process data with certain sensitivity labels but when I go into DLP to create the policy, the location for Microsoft 365 Copilot is not an option. I also noticed that the "Fabric and Power BI workspaces: location is also not available. I have checked other similar client M365 tenants, and both of these locations are available by default. Any insight would be appreciated.

  • There are additional license requirements for these locations. DLP for Copilot is only available with E5, much like Teams, and Fabric requires pay as you go billing to be enabled. Alternatively, you need the Compliance add-in.

    In addition, Copilot support is currently in preview, so it might not yet be available for all tenants. Lastly, the option will only be available when you create custom policy (i.e. you cannot use any predefined templates even if you meet all the other prerequisites):

    • The Microsoft 365 Copilot (preview) policy location is only available in the Custom policy template.

      Thanks for your reply. The screenshot above is from the custom policy template. Also, this client has E3 licensing but not E5 however, the other client tenants that I have checked did not have E5 subscriptions either, but the option was there. The only difference between this tenant and others that AI have compared it to is that this one has Copilot licensing and the others do not, but I have yet to find a place in Copilot admin center to manage this. I'm currently leaning toward the "Copilot support is currently in preview, so it might not yet be available for all tenants." as the most viable solution at this point.
