Hi,

We have decided to enable sensitivity labels for our organisation. However, we could not find any default labels available in our tenant to assign to users.

Could someone please explain why no default labels are available in our tenant?

    Hello Sheik Mohamed Yasar,

    Have you tried activating this from DSPM? Refer to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/default-sensitivity-labels-policies#activate-the-default-labels-and-policies

    Also, make sure you have the right permissions from RBAC perspective. Refer to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/purview/get-started-with-sensitivity-labels#permissions-required-to-create-and-manage-sensitivity-labels

    Hope this helps!
