Failed Downloading Information Protection Policy

We have configured Sensitivity Labels in Office 365 Security and published the Classification Labels. We have installed Azure AIP Unified Labelling client on Desktop. We are unable to see the labels in our Office Apps. We are getting error ' Failed Downloading Information Protection Policy'

  • I have downloaded the Unified Version and added sensitivity labels, policies and even downloaded that UAIP in domain joined machine but still I am getting the same error.

    The sensitivity tab is added.

    but not able to see the labels and I have exported the logs from word app, I am getting this ""Send Telemetry event. Event name: [load_policy_failed]"[Outlook] and "ErrorCode: failed_to_acquire_token_silently"[Word]

      Hi guys.

      What’s the fix please ? I have been troubleshooting for weeks and not being able to get labels to work. I have subscription and setting already configured as per suggestion in this thread.

      Shreya_sinha said run app with admin, which I tried. Didn’t work.

      Nam-Tran said certificate issue. Not sure what exactly is the fix apart from asking to look in log in app data.

      Not having much luck after exhausted all methods.

        LPwin, I reported this problem to the network admin, and he fixed that. You can make a simple check by checking it from the external network. It should show correctly. If that is the case, SSL decrypt is the reason behind that.

    Hi all,

    I encountered the same error when deploying in the corporate environment (It worked well in a environment without firewall):

     

    The error said that:

     

    "Event.ErrorType: [NetworkError], Pii: [None]
    Event.Failed.File: [src\core\api_impl\http\http_director_impl.cpp], Pii: [None]
    Event.Failed.Func: [mipns::HttpTelemetryHelper::NotifyOperationComplete], Pii: [None]
    Event.Failed.Line: [312], Pii: [None]
    Event.Failed.Message: [No HTTP response. Failed with: [NetworkError: 'SSL failure Inner exception: [http_exception: 'WinHttpReceiveResponse: 12175: A security error occurred'], NetworkError.Category=SSL, HttpRequest.SanitizedUrl=https://apc01.dataservice.protection.outlook.com/PsorWebService/v1/ClientSyncFile/MipPolicies, HttpRequest.Id={79181A37-C29C-4402-97B6-F9DF866A1093}']], Pii: [None]"

     

    Tried to contact the sysadmin guy and asked him to configure the firewall in accordance with the relevant Microsoft guide, but the problem still persists.

     

    Hope that you guys can help me.

    Hi, a couple of initial questions on this please;

     

    1), What operating system are your computers running?

    2). Are the users signed into Office with the user accounts to whom the label policies are applied?

    3). Most importantly, is the label policy setup in the Security and Compliance Center or from AIP in the Azure portal?
