Description

Defines the configuration for your content scan job, which scans the content in the defined repositories, according to the settings defined. For more information about content scan jobs, see the Microsoft Purview Information Protection on-premises scanner documentation.

Examples

Example 1 Define default content scan job settings

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ScannerContentScan -Enforce Off

This example defines the content scan job with default settings, and sets the Policy enforcement option to Off.

Example 2 Define a basic content scan job that runs continuously

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ScannerContentScan -Enforce Off -RelabelFiles On -EnforceDefaultLabel On -Schedule Always

This example defines the content scan job with without enforcing a policy, allowing files to be re-labeled, using a default label, and is scheduled to run always.

Example 3 Define a content scan job that allows for specific re-labeling actions only

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ScannerContentScan -RelabelFiles On -AllowLabelDowngrade On -EnforceDefaultLabel On

This example defines a content scan job that allows for content to be re-labeled only to downgrade a label or use a default label.

Example 4 Define a content scan job that excludes .msg and .tmp files

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ScannerContentScan -IncludeFileTypes '' -ExcludeFileTypes '.msg,.tmp'

This example defines a content scan job that includes all file types except for .msg and .tmp files.

Example 5 Define a content scan job with DLP enabled, and a specific repository owner

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ScannerContentScan -EnableDLP On -RepositoryOwner 'domain\user'

This example defines the content scan job to use the Microsoft Purview data loss prevention (DLP) sensitivity information types when scanning your content, and also defines a specific owner for the content scan job's repositories.

Example 6 Define a content scan job with a default label to use when automatically labeling content

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Set-ScannerContentScan -DefaultLabelType Custom -DefaultLabelId 'ff1f1c9d-2f92-4a18-3d84-4608b742424'

This example defines the content scan job with a specific label used as the default label, specified by the label ID.
