Hi Bhavpreet Bains ,

 

Things to check  - 

 

1. The labels have been published via a policy.

2. Policy has been set to publish to the correct users

3. Give it some time, come back the next day in some cases.

    Andrew Hodges Anything else you can suggest for this?

    Labels are published (visible in Office apps and Office on the Web). I've waited over a week since creating the labels but still not appearing in the drop-down.

    Is this setting in SPO just for applying RETENTION labels rather than SENSITIVITY labels perhaps?

      Same issue here. Several sensitivity labels are deployed via policy to the correct users but the dropdown menu in Sharepoint only shows None. And it's already weeks since the deployment, so definitely no timing issue. I have no clue what to do next. I also wondered if this only works for retention and not for sensitivity labels. Any ideas would be very much appreciated.
