Can the CSOM appy Information Management Policies to Content Types?

I'm looking to use client side code to manage the Information Management Policies of Content Types. Can this be done?

Add a policy to a content type.

Copy a policy from one content type to another.

Copy a source policy to update a destination content type and then those changes propogate to the lists/libraries where they are used.

Thanks,

Doug

Hi Doug,

Per my knowledge, we can only use Powershell and server side object model to achieve it.

Here is a simialr thread for you to take a look at:

As a workaround, we can create a web service and use Server Object Model to achieve it.

Thanks,
