Apply sensitivity labels using PowerShell
Is it possible to apply sensitivity labels to documents in SharePoint (not sites or groups) using PowerShell?
- There is no cmdlet to apply labels to individual files, afaik. Set-AIPFileLabel only works on local files. Using the MIP SDK is probably the way to go, at least until Microsoft introduces a cmdlet/Graph API endpoints.
Funnily enough we do have a cmdlet to remove labels: https://office365itpros.com/2021/03/25/decrypt-sharepoint-online-documents-graph/
How would someone using PowerShell change a label on a document? For example, a document was classified as Confidential. A request has come in to have the document reclassified as Internal. Is there a way for the Security Admin to change the classification of the document assuming we do not allow our base to change the classification themselves?

Unlock-SensitivityLabelEncryptedFile (SharePointOnlinePowerShell) | Microsoft Docs
Remove encryption for a labeled document
Might as well add this too (RMS to unified labeling cmdlet mapping)
