Hi, I noticed that DLP policy havent refreshed in few days and I created and applied a new policy today.

I have about 70+ connectors in allowed 9 in non-business and 1000+ in blocked. Is this an ongoing issue as previously I have had DLP policy kick in within 30-60 mins.

Thanks

You're not alone — several users have reported delays in Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policy enforcement recently, especially when managing large numbers of connectors. Here's what we know based on the latest information:

🧠 Expected DLP Policy Propagation Time

Normally, DLP policy changes take effect within 30–60 minutes.
However, Microsoft documentation acknowledges that it can take up to 24 hours in some cases for changes to fully propagate across all services.

⚠️ Why delays happen

Large connector sets (like your 1000+ blocked connectors) can increase processing time.
Multiple environments or complex policy scopes (e.g., tenant-wide vs. environment-specific) may also slow down propagation.
Backend sync issues or service throttling can cause intermittent delays, especially during peak usage or platform updates .

✅ What you can do

Wait up to 24 hours — this is the maximum expected delay according to Microsoft.
Check the Power Platform Admin Center:
- Go to admin.powerplatform.microsoft.com.
- Navigate to Data policies and confirm the policy is active and applied to the correct environments.
Use PowerShell to verify policy application:
- Use the Get-DlpPolicy and Get-DlpPolicyEnvironment cmdlets from the Microsoft.PowerApps.Administration.PowerShell module.
Monitor the Power Platform Health Center for any ongoing service issues.
