RM567890 - Microsoft Purview: Information Protection - Auto-labeling scale increase for SharePoint and OneDrive

Microsoft 365 Roadmap

Summary

We are increasing the maximum auto-labeling capacity for SharePoint and OneDrive from 100,000 up to 500,000 files per tenant per day. This helps organizations label and protect more of their data at rest, faster, closing labeling gaps across existing content. With sensitivity labels and protection settings applied to more files sooner, organizations can better prepare their data estate for Microsoft 365 Copilot with greater confidence.
