Description
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.
Change history
Added to the roadmap 17 July 2026. Tracked here since 1 September 2026. Earliest target we recorded: October 2026 (since tracked — Microsoft may have moved it before we started watching).
