MicrosoftHi Seth Weddon,
In order to retrieve Labels from Office 365 into MCAS, you need to configure Unified Labeling in Azure Information Protection. Once enabled, you would be able to satisfy use cases 1 and 4. For use case 4, I recommend to first setup a file policy in monitoring mode to understand how many SharePoint and OneDrive files will need the Internal Use Label before setting the governance action.
For use cases 2 and 3 you can use the native Office365 DLP where you are able to create and publish Office365 sensitivity labels to SharePoint sites / document libraries. By creating a label in the console you can then automatically apply a label by again enabling Unified Labeling with AIP.
Hi Anisha Gupta
I'm not getting it. My understanding is that the Sensitivity labels and Sensitivity Label policies allows you to define a default label based on the users to which you apply the policy. Not based on the location of the files. So I don't understand how this would work for case #2 and case #3.
I believe that you could use MCAS to apply the specific labels to all files and folders that are in a a selected library using the governance options.
