About provisioning: I understand we can now apply sensitivity labels to Teams and all underlying channels and SharePoint sites. But can we also set these labels during provisioning? If someone requests a sensitive Team, we want the labels to be applied automatically.
- Nov 09, 2021Hi Frederique, You can set sensitivity labels when creating the team, or change it after it's been created. But to have it auto provision would mean something like applying it to a Teams template. I don't think anything is on the roadmap - I would raise a uservoice here: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/ Hope that answers your question Best, Chris
- Sivaprakash_saripalliNov 09, 2021Former EmployeeThanks Frédérique. This is great feedback. Are you requesting this ability in Teams admin center? Or are you requesting that sensitivity labels be auto-assigned to teams created by end-users? Pls clarify.
- Frédérique HarmszeNov 09, 2021Brass ContributorWe are hoping to create & provision Teams via templates. If the end-user request a sensitive type of Team, e.g. a finance Team, we'd like the sensitivity label to be set automatically.
- Nov 11, 2021This is rolling out now. ”Sensitivity labels enable admins to protect and regulate access to sensitive organization content. We now support sensitivity labels when creating teams with templates.” https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=84232
