I'm hoping I might grab the attention of someone from MS who might have some knowledge on this...

With the advent of the new DLP structures, the legacy DLP's become a bit cumbersome and need to be recreated.

I'm attempting to create a new one for the default environment, mirroring the previous connectors in the old DLP. This one is fairly simple, generally MS products, Word, Excel, OneDrive etc.

Content Conversion

This is one connector I can't re-add. In the existing legacy DLP it shows as custom:

It's not a custom connector.. and it's not available as a choice for the new DLP.

Searching for info on this connector leads me to the MS docs:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/conversionservice/

Which says Preview..

The connector is in use my multiple flows, so I can't just promote the new DLP as it will break these flows and I'll have cranky users.
Is this connector deprecated, in preview, not available?

@grantreid not sure if you already solve this issues. From Connector classification, it mentioned below statements:
"The Content Conversion connector is an integral feature of Microsoft Power Platform, used to convert an HTML document to plain text. It applies both to Business and Non-Business scenarios and doesn't store any data context of the content converted through it; therefore, it's not available for classification through DLP policies."
I think it should be expected behavior that this connector isn't listed in DLP because there is no data context stored which you need to define in DLP.
