We setup retentionlabels with a disposition. All was working properly except some B2B could not finalize the disposition. During testing one of the engineers accidently removed the mail enabled security group and after that we could not see anything anymore. We re-created the group with same emailadress (slightly different name we corrected a typo) and this was automatically picked up by the labels. We however do still not see any dispositions. Even with the complaince admin , global admin with recordmanagement role and having the high level role for dispositions. My assumption is the item ~450 docs are no in a twilight zone but not sure how to get them back. Ticket is logged with microsoft but allready running for 50 days without a resolution. Any tips would be really helpfull we setup a few tenants for testing allthough we have to wait for all to be provisioned.

The era of AI is reshaping industries, enabling unprecedented innovations, and presenting new opportunities for organizations worldwide. But as organizations accelerate AI adoption, many are focused on a growing concern: their current data security and governance practices are not effectively built for the fast-paced AI innovation and ever-evolving regulatory landscape. At Microsoft, we recognize the critical need for an integrated approach to address these risks. In our latest findings, Top 3 Challenges in Securing and Governing Data for the Era of AI, we uncovered critical gaps in how organizations manage data risk. The findings exemplify the current challenges: 91% of leaders are not prepared to manage risks posed by AI 1 and 85% feel unprepared to comply with AI regulations 2 . These gaps not only increase non-compliance but also put innovation at risk. Microsoft Purview has the tools to tackle these challenges head on, helping organizations move to an approach that protects data, meets compliance regulations, and enables trusted AI transformation. We invite you to take this opportunity to evaluate your current practices, platforms, and responsibilities, and to understand how to best secure and govern your organization for growing data risks in the era of AI. Platform fragmentation continues to weaken security outcomes Organizations often rely on fragmented tools across security, compliance, and data teams, leading to a lack of unified visibility and insufficient data hygiene. Our findings reveal the effects of fragmented platforms, leading to duplicated data, inconsistent classification, redundant alerts, and siloed investigations, which ultimately is causing data exposure incidents related to AI to be on the rise 3 . Microsoft Purview offers centralized visibility across your organization’s data estate. This allows teams to break down silos, streamline workflows, and mitigate data leakage and oversharing. With Microsoft Purview, capabilities like data health management and data security posture management are designed to enhance collaboration and deliver enriched insights across your organization to help further protect your data and mitigate risks faster. Microsoft Purview offers the following: Unified insights across your data estate, breaking down silos between security, compliance, and data teams. Microsoft Purview Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) for AI helps organizations gain unified visibility into GenAI usage across users, data, and apps to address the heightened risk of sensitive data exposure from AI. Built-in capabilities like classification, labeling, data loss prevention, and insider risk insights in one platform. In addition, newly launched solutions like Microsoft Purview Data Security Investigations accelerate investigations with AI-powered deep content analysis, which helps data security teams quickly identify and mitigate sensitive data and security risks within impacted data. Organizations like Kern County historically relied on many fragmented systems but adopted Microsoft Purview to unify their organization’s approach to data protection in preparation for increasing risks associated with deploying GenAI. “We have reduced risk exposure, [Microsoft] Purview helped us go from reaction to readiness. We are catching issues proactively instead of retroactively scrambling to contain them.” – Aaron Nance, Deputy Chief Information Security Officer, Kern County Evolving regulations require continuous compliance AI-driven innovation is creating a surge in regulations, resulting in over 200 daily updates across more than 900 regulatory agencies 4 , as highlighted in our research. Compliance has become increasingly difficult, with organizations struggling to avoid fines and comply with varying requirements across regions. To navigate these challenges effectively, security leaders’ responsibilities are expanding to include oversight across governance and compliance, including oversight of traditional data catalog and governance solutions led by the central data office. Leaders also cite the need for regulation and audit readiness. Microsoft Purview enables compliance and governance by: Streamlining compliance with Microsoft Purview Compliance Manager templates, step-by-step guidance, and insights for region and industry-specific regulations, including GDPR, HIPAA, and AI-specific regulation like the EU AI Act. Supporting legal matters such as forensic and internal investigations with audit trail records in Microsoft Purview eDiscovery and Audit. Activating and governing data for trustworthy analytics and AI with Microsoft Purview Unified Catalog, which enables visibility across your data estate and data confidence via data quality, data lineage, and curation capabilities for federated governance. Microsoft Purview’s suite of capabilities provides visibility and accountability, enabling security leaders to meet stringent compliance demands while advancing AI initiatives with confidence. Organizations need a unified approach to secure and govern data Organizations are calling for an integrated platform to address data security, governance, and compliance collectively. Our research shows that 95% of leaders agree that unifying teams and tools is a top priority 5 and 90% plan to adopt a unified solution to mitigate data related risks and maximize impact 6 . Integration isn't just about convenience, it’s about enabling innovation with trusted data protection. Microsoft Purview enables a shared responsibility model, allowing individual business units to own their data while giving central teams oversight and policy control. As organizations adopt a unified platform approach, our findings reveal the upside potential not only being reduced risk but also cost savings. With AI-powered copilots such as Security Copilot in Microsoft Purview, data protection tasks are simplified with natural-language guidance, especially for under resourced teams. Accelerating AI transformation with Microsoft Purview Microsoft Purview helps security, compliance, and governance teams navigate the complexities of AI innovation while implementing effective data protection and governance strategies. Microsoft partner EY highlights the results they are seeing: “We are seeing 25%–30% time savings when we build secure features using [Microsoft] Purview SDK. What was once fragmented is now centralized. With [Microsoft] Purview, everything comes together on one platform, giving a unified foundation to innovate and move forward with confidence.” – Prashant Garg, Partner of Data and AI, EY We invite you to explore how you can propel your organization toward a more secure future by reading the full research paper at https://aka.ms/SecureAndGovernPaper.

File Plan/Retention Labels cannot be deleted OR found in content explorer
When we try to delete a Purview Records Management > File Plan label (or Data Lifecycle Management > Retention label), we get the following error: "You can't delete this record label because it's currently applied to items in your organization. You can use content explorer to determine which items have this label applied." (see attached image). When we go to content explorer to find the label (in this example, Bank Reconciliations), it doesn't appear to exist (see attached image). We also reviewed our Label policies and Retention policies, and the given labels are not associated with any policy that we can see. So, in result, we cannot clean up File Plan labels since we can't find and remove the association between them and policies / items. Has anyone encountered this error when deleting file plan retention labels, but then unable to find anything the label is associated with?
