How can we restrict access using Sensitivity label in purview

When we apply a sensitivity label to Fabric items, can we restrict access to those items?

For example, if I assign viewer access through the sensitivity label and contributor access through the Fabric Workspace, I am still able to edit the Fabric items. Has anyone else experienced this? Were you able to successfully restrict access?

Sensitivity labels do not control access. They control the ability to share after access.

HI @Anonymous,

I'd like to suggest you take a look at the official document about the sensitive labels and usages:
