DLP command not working

@Mukilan M - Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

It seems like you are trying to use the Get-DlpCompliancePolicy cmdlet in PowerShell but it is not found. This cmdlet is used to retrieve data loss prevention (DLP) compliance policies in Microsoft 365.

Regarding your question about the license, Microsoft 365 Standard includes DLP features. However, it is possible that the cmdlet is not available in your PowerShell module version.

To check the features and license of your Microsoft 365 subscription, you can refer to the following document: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/solutions/subscriptions-and-licenses-faq?view=o365-worldwide

According to official documentation: Get-DlpCompliancePolicy

This cmdlet is available only in Security & Compliance PowerShell. For more information, see Security & Compliance PowerShell.

Use the Get-DlpCompliancePolicy to view data loss prevention (DLP) policies in the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.

Regarding the missing cmdlet, you can try updating your PowerShell module to the latest version and check if the cmdlet is available. You can also try using the Microsoft 365 Compliance Center to manage your DLP policies.

Connect to the Security & Compliance Center using PowerShell and run the Get-DlpCompliancePolicy cmdlet to see the DistributionStatus.

PS C:\> Connect-IPPSSession


PS C:\> Get-DlpCompliancePolicy "Testing - Australian PII" | Select DistributionStatus

Hi，@Mukilan M

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

Based on your description, could you provide a screenshot of the error?

Is the error message the same as the one in the picture below?

Looking up the official documentation, I found that the Get-DlpCompliancePolicy cmdlet is available only in Security & Compliance PowerShell.

 1. First you need to connect to Security & Compliance PowerShell in your Microsoft 365 organization:

Connect-IPPSSession -UserPrincipalName navin@contoso.onmicrosoft.com

2. Run the Get-DlpCompliancePolicy cmdlet.

If my answer is helpful to you, please mark it as the answer so that other users can refer to it. Thank you for your support and understanding.

@Mukilan M As rightly said by @Bruce Jing-MSFT and @PRADEEPCHEEKATLA-MSFT , you need to connect to security and compliance PowerShell viz., Connect-IPPSSession.

However, Get-DlpCompliancePolicy commands doesn't work with Microsoft Business Standard License.
