Seeing private documents coming from a collegue's OneDrive
Today when opening Delve I'm seeing surfaced in Delve private documents coming from a colleague's OneDrive...anyone else seeing the same? Delve is correct and the problem seems to be in my colleague'...
- Apr 16, 2017OK, issue identified and solved...just digging into the User Profiles configuration of our tenant, I found I was also a site collection administrator for the ODFB of this colleague...something I was not aware of until I discovered this private documents in Delve. Now I have to find at what moment I was added as site collection administrator and who did it :P.

When you open the user properties UI you can give you instant access to the users OneDrive (Site Collection) - basically a shortcut instead of going to the SharePoint Admin Center and manually searching for the user profile and giving you access.

I know it, but I'm not aware if I did it this change or anyone else at my company did it
