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?

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.
