Exchange Transport Rules (ETRs) stopping support for DLP scenarios

Last year, the Exchange Online data loss prevention (DLP) experience was retired from the classic Exchange admin center (EAC) (MC278896, August ’21 & MC400953, July ’22). We recommend customers use Microsoft Purview Unified DLP, which extends DLP protection to SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business, Teams chats, devices, and more. The Microsoft Purview compliance portal provides access to advanced classification capabilities like EDM, ML, etc., along with rich alerts, incident management features, and more.

We are notifying you now that we are removing support for Exchange Online DLP in mail flow rules.

Microsoft Viva: Answers in Viva – AI Topic suggestions in publisher

With the help of AI topic extraction, we can offer suggested topics based on the user’s question. Our AI topic extraction recommends up to 3 topics to add to one’s question based on what they wrote.

These can be existing Viva topics or newly generated ones that the user can create and add. The user still must select and add our AI suggested topic since they do not automatically get attached to the question. The user can also still search and add their own topic and choose not to use our AI suggested topics.
