filePlanDescriptor resource type

Namespace: microsoft.graph.security

Represents a set of optional descriptors to supplement a retention label and improve the manageability and organization of Microsoft 365 content.

You can add a descriptor by using the POST operation of the corresponding file plan descriptor template, and specifying data for the descriptor. For example, to include a filePlanCitation descriptor, use the create citationTemplate operation. Similarly, you can use the GET or DELETE operations on the template resource for the descriptor.

To list the descriptors that supplement a retention label, use the GET operation on that retentionLabel resource and apply $expand on the descriptors relationship.

For information on how retention labels and file plan descriptors work in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal, see Use file plan to create and manage retention labels.
