## Sensitivity label handling in Azure AI Search

When Azure AI Search indexes document content with sensitivity labels from sources like SharePoint, Azure Blob, and others, it stores both the content and the label metadata. The search query returns indexed content along with the GUID that identifies the sensitivity label applied to the document, only if the user has data EXTRACT access for that document. This GUID uniquely identifies the label but doesn't include human-readable properties such as the label name or associated permissions.

Note that the GUID alone is insufficient for scenarios that include user interface because sensitivity labels often carry other policy controls enforced by [Microsoft Purview Information Protection](/purview/sensitivity-labels), such as: print permissions or screenshot and screen capture restrictions. Azure AI Search doesn't surface these capabilities.
