I tested it out and the external user was still able to see the contents of the document.

I ran this cmd from the linked documentation you posted:

Update: Re-read the documentation and this solution doesn't cover OneDrive yet.

"Note

This cmdlet applies to newly added files in all SharePoint sites. It doesn't block sharing if an existing file is changed.

My issue is strictly with OneDrive external collaboration. We do not have SharePoint enabled for external sharing yet.

Is there an estimate of how long this new cmd will be able to cover OneDrive?
