Unable to login to purview once Classic interface retired
Once Microsoft forced the retirement of the Classic portal, I have been unable to login to Purview. I opened a case and it went nowhere, we have not changed anything with our account permissions or roles during this period, but Microsoft obviously changed something drastic. We'd been using Purview classic without any problems, we simply got a message last year that "Microsoft had migrated us" and never worked since. Earlier in the year, we'd encounter an error, now (without changing anything) we get to a screen that reads "Select a Microsoft Purview account" and it lists our Microsoft Entra ID (only one to choose) but the next prompt to select from a drop-down under "Account name" has no options. Is Microsoft documenting common scenarios for what they've broken? Support refused (or were unable) to actually dig into our tenant or configuration to look, they just sent article after article that didn't apply to our situation.Custom SITs fine tunned in MIP
Hello Everyone, Currently working on MS Purview Solutions greenfield deployment project for one of the customer for on-premise data and M365 data. I have created few custom SITs classifiers with regex pattern in the MIP portal almost 3 months ago and it's classifying the data as expected but with some false positives. All of them are fine-tuned to prevent false positives. It's scanning and classifying the newly created M365 data as expected. However it's not reclassifying the previously classified false positive data. How can I forcefully rescan/reclassify the false positive M365 data. I just want to reclassify the data with fine-tuned custom SITs to correctly classify the data before labelling. One more question related to on-prem scanners. I have started the on-prem scanners to scan all the SharePoint sites and Fileshares for any sensitive information. Initially its ran full scan and later it's started as incremental scan. Above scan started before creating the custom SITs and labels. Now I want run a full scan just to classify the data with recommending the labels based on the sensitive data instead of enforcing and applying the label. Can someone throw some light which options need to be select for just recommending the label instead of applying the label. Current configuration as shown below: Any help really appreciated.

9M365PurvieweDiscoveryInfra touching files in office activity logs
Hi, We use Office Activity Logs through Log Analytics Workspace to report on specific files. We noticed that in our most recent report, many files were accessed by 'ExportWorker' with 'ClientAppName' M365PurvieweDiscoveryInfra. This seems to have happened on specific days a couple of weeks ago where the activity 'file accessed' whenever an ediscovery was run on a location that stored the particular file was registered. This was not the case before if I remember correctly. Does anyone know why this activity was registered as such in the logs and/or has also experienced the exportworker of M365PurvieweDiscoveryInfra touch their files when running an ediscovery? Is this a change with the new eDiscovery? It is also undesirable that users can track incident response employees touching their files in case of an investigation.
eDiscovery for email attachment with encrypted sensitivity labels
We are currently testing encrypted sensitivity labels in conjunction with eDiscovery. We applied an encrypted label to a document, and eDiscovery was able to successfully search for the content in both OneDrive and SharePoint. However, the same functionality does not appear to work for email attachments—the content of encrypted attachments is not searchable. Are there any specific settings or configurations that need to be enabled to support encrypted email attachments in eDiscovery? Thanks
Default Label and Justification Suddenly Stopped Working
Hi, Sometime last week, default labels for documents suddenly stopped working, it still works for emails. Also, there is a configuration where users have to provide a justification to lower a sensitivity label, that stopped working as well. This has all been in place since May and have always worked but just suddenly stopped working last week. I created a new label with the exact configuration to test, but that works perfectly. I have tried recreating the labels that do not work anymore, but nothing changed. Has anyone experienced this and how did you go about it. Thanks, Aishat
Purview Data Quality Dashboard/ Report - Refresh
Hi All, Currently I am getting all blank in Purview Data quality dashboard, before two months dashboard shows all values across each data quality dimensions and showed graph for each quadrant in a dashboard. After two months when checked the dashboard everything is blank nothing is shown in the report. (Note : I have created two governance domain and each domain has five data products assigned with data assets, implemented data quality rules on top of each data assets that time scores were reflected in the Purview data quality dashboard), but suddenly now it all went blank scores showing as 'blank' Note : None of the data quality assessment were not deleted during that two months, data quality rules are still active and its still showing scores at data asset level. But its not showing in the dashboard currently. Can you please help me to sort out, is there any refresh policy associated for Purview Data quality dashboard.New blog post: Is Your Data Ready for Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Is Your Data Ready for Microsoft 365 Copilot? Microsoft 365 Copilot is a game-changer for productivity, but here’s the catch: Copilot surfaces what users already have access to. If your governance isn’t in order, sensitive data could be exposed. In my latest blog, I share: ✅ How to prevent oversharing in Teams & SharePoint ✅ Why sensitivity labels are critical for Copilot ✅ How to monitor usage and avoid shadow AI ✅ Why you don’t need perfect governance to start 📖 Read the full blog: Microsoft 365 Copilot Data Readiness Checklist 👉 What’s your biggest challenge with Copilot readiness?
