ArcGIS Enterprise Portal 12.0 introduced a configurable classification schema (https://doc.esri.com/en/arcgis-enterprise/latest/administer/configure-classification-schema.html?pivots=os-windows), which, in and of itself, is very useful for my employer.
The idea - Guardrails
I imagine that this is on some roadmap somewhere, and I'm hoping it's in the near term. Let's say that we have configured our portal with this classification schema:
- must be classified before sharing
- confidential with special handling requirements
- confidential
- public
- When adding or creating a new item to portal, the system could apply a default classification to the item. We could configure the one we want to be default. Let's say we configured A above as the default.
- Portal Item sharing could operate with respect to the classification.
- When attempting to share to Everyone or Organization, the operation would fail with an informative message if we had configured portal to fail for classifications A, B, or C.
- When attempting to share to a Group, the operation would fail if we had configured portal to fail for classification A.
That's my only idea today.
cheers,
