How Sensitivity Labels Control the Sharing Capability of SharePoint Online Sites

[Tony Redmond]

The latest update for sensitivity labels allows them to control the sharing capability of SharePoint Online sites. It’s a powerful example of policy-based management in action and demonstrates just how useful sensitivity labels will be as Microsoft steadily builds out the set of controls available through labels.

I have started to use them programmatically, but doing it via Graph it is still not possible to get the ContentType/Scope as you can via PowerShell.
Even though the endpoint is still in Beta, this is something that they need to include since otherwise it will be near impossible to differentiate labels that e.g. are file specific vs. Unified groups or Site.

I believe Microsoft has plans to update the Graph API to provide this functionality. This might only be a rumor launched by me...
