Details:

Updated April 11, 2023: We have updated the availability timing outlined below. Thank you for your patience.
This is a follow up to MC500902 (January '23), we're making some changes to how Microsoft 365 Apps choose between the built-in client for sensitivity labels and the legacy Azure Information Protection (AIP) Add-in.
Starting with version 2302, all users of this add-in will be migrated to the modern, built-in interface for sensitivity labels in Office. Review the earliest availability dates.
!! Updated release information for Monthly Enterprise Channel !!
Beta Channel: Already available since October 2022 (min version 2210+)
Current Channel Preview: Already available since November 2022 (2211+)
Current Channel: Already available since March 2023 (min version 2302+)
Monthly Enterprise Channel: May 9, 2023 (min version 2303+)
Semi Annual Enterprise Channel: July 11, 2023 (min version 2303+)
This will simplify admin configuration of sensitivity labels for Office documents and substantially improve end-user productivity from improvements to performance. For users who need to continue using the AIP Add-in during its support lifecycle, you need to deploy a new configuration for Office to explicitly allow the AIP Add-in to be used for viewing and applying labels in Office.
The new configuration setting is already available for you to deploy via group policy or cloud policy. Use this to configure an exception to allow the AIP Add-in to continue providing sensitivity labels once the minimum version is deployed.
