Hi Pradocn,
Potentially you might want to use MCAS, set WhatsApp as a sanctioned App.
You can "Edit App Details" and this will allow you to check a box "Use with Conditional Access App Control". This should then allow you to create a "Session Policy" to block uploads via Conditional Access.
There is also:
portal.cloudappsecurity.com/#/policy/discovery-anomaly/5e8f4921a11d96a098280ac4
Use the "App Tag" to create a specific tag called "WhatsApp" and apply it - this way it can be targeted specifically to WhatsApp instead of either Sanctioned or Unsanctioned Apps
See how you go from there?

David Caddick thanks for the reply!
I did as you told me, set WhatsApp as a sanctioned App and checked "Use with Conditional Access App Control":But when I try to create a "Session Policy" to block uploads via Conditional Access whatsapp it is not available.
Best regards,
