I am using the scanner APIs to get metadata for my organization's Power BI tenant.
The API returns a 'sensitivityLabelId' GUID for reports, dashboards etc.
Where can I get the corresponding sensitivity label descriptions?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @powercdc,
I check the rest API document but not found the get sensitive label API, it seems existed API to set or remove specific label.
Set or remove sensitivity labels programmatically with admin APIs - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
In addition, the document also mentions these sensitive label operations seems will be records in the audit logs. For this situation, perhaps you can try to use activity log related API to indirectly get these labels.

Following much investigation, there does not appear to be an API where I can programatically query the list of sensitivity label ID and Description values
