How to change one file permissions
Hi Juan, if I understand well what he means, Iivo Kerminen has a Group-connected team site with a document library and he would like to configure some Members of the Group with read-only permission and some with read-write permission.
AFAIK this is not possible (and anyway not recommended).
Am I wrong?
Salvatore Biscari to a degree yes. Connected group sites Members can be restricted from documents and items etc. on the connected SharePoint site, but owners cannot. Reason being, owners are site collection admins, but members are nothing but a group user added to the Members SharePoint group on the site.
So basically you can remove (stop inheriting) permissions for a list/library/item etc. and add customize the permissions there. If you don't want Office 365 Group members to see the content you remove the Members SharePoint group and then add the individual users (or create a new SharePoint group with the users), and at that point only those users and the Group "Owners" can access that content.
