Apply sensitivity labels using PowerShell
Is it possible to apply sensitivity labels to documents in SharePoint (not sites or groups) using PowerShell?
- There is no cmdlet to apply labels to individual files, afaik. Set-AIPFileLabel only works on local files. Using the MIP SDK is probably the way to go, at least until Microsoft introduces a cmdlet/Graph API endpoints.
Funnily enough we do have a cmdlet to remove labels: https://office365itpros.com/2021/03/25/decrypt-sharepoint-online-documents-graph/

thank you for following up on this. I am aware of the auto-labeling policies but they can only label files based on content of the file. I was looking for a solution that allows me to label the files based on different requirements and I believe building a solution that calls the MIP SDK is the way to go.
