Microsoft Purview | Data Loss Prevention: Admin-configurable compliance URL in M365 Copilot data access messages

Microsoft Purview DLP now lets admins configure the destination URL for the “Learn about access restrictions” link in Microsoft 365 Copilot data access messages. This directs users to organization-specific compliance guidance instead of Microsoft’s public documentation. The feature rolls out worldwide in late September 2026 and requires admin configuration. What and Why: We are introducing a new Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capability that allows administrators to configure the destination URL for the Learn about access restrictions link displayed in Microsoft 365 Copilot data access messages. This enhancement enables organizations to direct users to internal compliance guidance, data governance resources, or support content that is specific to their organization, while maintaining a consistent and localized user experience. This supports enterprise-ready AI by helping organizations provide policy-specific guidance when DLP policies restrict Copilot access to content. Today, when a Microsoft Purview DLP policy prevents Microsoft 365 Copilot from grounding on, processing, or returning content, users receive a message explaining that the content was restricted by an organizational policy, together with a Learn about access restrictions link to Microsoft’s public DLP documentation. With this update, organizations can direct that link to a compliance URL of their own, such as an internal data-handling policy page, data governance portal, or help desk request form, so users are connected to guidance that is specific to their organization. The message wording and the link label remain standardized, Microsoft-controlled, and localized. Only the destination of the link changes. Administrator-authored message text is not part of this release.
