Microsoft 365 app: Microsoft Loop – Retention Labels will be available for Loop pages and components
Organizations that rely on Microsoft’s records management capabilities in Purview can now include Loop content in their workflows with Retention Labels on Loop pages and components. There’s an in-app experience when a label is applied.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 397755
[When this will happen:]
General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out late November 2024 and expect to complete by late December 2024.
[How this will affect your organization:]
Tenants that utilize retention labels will now be able to include Loop content in their workflows with Retention Labels on Loop pages and components. There’s an in-app experience when a label is applied.
Retention labels from Microsoft Purview Data Lifecycle Management and Microsoft Purview Records Management are supported for .loop files by applying published labels in OneDrive, SharePoint, or SharePoint Embedded or automatically applying the labels.
For more information on where Loop content is stored, see Loop Storage.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
There is nothing you need to do to prepare. Retention labels configured in your tenant will automatically begin working with Loop content when the feature is rolled out.

The recent update regarding Microsoft Loop’s integration with Retention Labels is poised to create quite the ripple effect for both admins and users alike. As organizations increasingly lean on Microsoft’s records management features through Purview, the inclusion of Loop content in these workflows is a game changer.
For admins, this means a streamlined approach to managing content retention. No longer will Loop pages and components exist in a vacuum; they can now be governed by the same retention policies that apply to other Microsoft 365 tools. This integration is bound to simplify compliance efforts, making it easier to maintain organizational standards without the added complexity of managing separate systems.
On the user side, the in-app experience when applying labels adds a layer of convenience that enhances productivity. Users can now focus on collaboration and creativity without worrying about the nitty-gritty of compliance. It’s like having your cake and eating it too—enjoying the flexibility of Loop while keeping everything neatly in line with organizational policies.
As for the impact, it’s hard to overstate how beneficial this update will be. By enabling retention labels for Loop content, Microsoft is bridging the gap between dynamic collaboration and necessary governance. This means less time spent on administrative tasks and more time dedicated to what truly matters—innovation and teamwork.
So, as we eagerly await the rollout, expected between late November and late December 2024, it’s an excellent time to reflect on how these changes will benefit your organization.
