Microsoft Purview Sensitivity Labels: Sensitivity label grouping modernization coming this fall (?)

on
There is a change coming to Microsoft Purview Information Protection that simplifies sensitivity label architecture. The goal is to make label management easier, more scalable, and less rigid for organizations. The new model will only include standalone labels and sublabels. Parent labels will be replaced by label groups, which act as organizational containers. These groups cannot be applied to content and have no actions or scope, but they retain color and priority for visual organization.

Searching for that LineURI - Again

This is a script I have not used for a while, and when I needed it recently I discovered it would not run properly on a Lync 2013 server. I decided to rebuild the script to adapt to Powershell v3 and Lync 2013.

As an update, the script has been signed to be run on any system, and a more appropriate snippet with explanation has been added. And again, this has been added to the Technet Gallery. http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/Search-for-that-LineURI-814ac281

The script has not been tested on large deployments, so feedback and bug reports are really appreciated.
