Sharepoint document retention labels

I am trying to learn the Retention and Sensitive labels in office 365. I have an office 365 dev subscription and I created some retention labels and published it. But in my sharepoint team sites document library, I am not seeing options to apply labels. Are there any extra settings i need to enable this labeling to sharepoint library?

 

Thanks

    Just checking what you did - Create Label -> Add Label to a Policy - > Publish the policy to SharePoint. 

     

    It will take up to 1 day to appear. If that's not working then not sure why.

      Hi Andrew Hodges ,

       

       Thanks for the response. Yes, this is exactly I did and I did tried it today only.

      I did not know that the apply label option will be available in the sharepoint only after the published labels is available to use. I thought that it was a general settings that is visible all the time. 

       

      I will wait for a day and try again,

       

      Thanks again!
