General Availability: We will begin rolling out late June 2024 (previously mid-May) and expect to complete by mid-July 2024 (previously late May).
How this will affect your organization:
Existing admins who do not have the ‘Data Classification Content Viewer’ role assigned to any of their existing Role Groups will no longer have access to view source and SIT surrounding context.
What you need to do to prepare:
Ensure any admins that need to have access to ‘View Source’ and ‘SIT surrounding context’ have the ‘Data Classification Content Viewer’ role assigned to them.
