Sensitivity Labels with User-Defined Permissions Gain SharePoint Support

Finally, Microsoft solved the technical issues that blocked SharePoint Online support for sensitivity labels with user-defined permissions (UDP).

Files with UDP labels applied prior to GA are not processed until they are edited, but that’s reasonable.
