Business value

Historically, data policies couldn't block a core set of connectors, such as SharePoint and Microsoft Dataverse. With the new connector management rule, you can block any connector. New connectors default to blocked, so IT administrators get more control.

You can more easily manage the scope of environments impacted by using environment groups instead of the many-to-many model for data policies that exists today.

Feature details

Administrators can go to an environment group and see the new Advanced data policies: connector management rule that they can configure. With this rule, admins create an allowlist of connectors they want to use. All other connectors are blocked in apps, flows, and agents.
