Summary:
Microsoft Purview Content Explorer will introduce Classifier Scoping, allowing admins to filter data by classifiers, sensitivity, and retention labels to reduce noise. Rolling out from November 2025 to January 2026, scoped views can be saved and reused, with no workflow changes or opt-in required.
Details:
[Introduction]
Content Explorer contains significant volumes of data, and can sometimes feel overwhelming, leading to concerns about too many false positives in Microsoft Purview. To address this, we are introducing Classifier Scoping in Content Explorer. Classifier Scoping empowers customers to define exactly what data they want to see, significantly reducing noise and helping them focus on what matters most.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 518224.
[When this will happen:]
Public Preview: We will begin rolling out mid-November 2025 and expect to complete by early December 2025
Worldwide: We will begin rolling out late December 2025 and expect to complete by mid-January 2026.
