We are introducing enhanced access policy management for Organizational Data in Microsoft 365. This update enables admins to release custom attributes to specific users or groups, rather than broadly to all employees or all managers. This provides a more conservative default approach for managing sensitive organizational data, while also supporting staged rollout of new attributes. Additionally, admins can configure whether leaders and managers are permitted to share non-public data with Workforce Insights delegates. This enhancement improves governance, flexibility, and control over organizational data access.
