As the number of users and usage continues to grow, our customers have asked for an easier way to administer their company OneDrive settings and policies. Today, we’re excited to announce the rollout of the OneDrive admin center preview to First Release customers and we want to hear your feedback.
Once deployed to your tenant, all tenant and SharePoint admins will have permissions to access the OneDrive admin center preview at https://admin.onedrive.com.
Key features by section include:
- Home: This is the dashboard for the admin center and will soon show recent Office 365 Message Center posts and usage reporting related to OneDrive for Business.
- Sharing: This section helps admins gain control over how and with whom your users are sharing information. This includes controlling the use of external sharing and anonymous links, as well as limiting which external domains users can share with.
- Sync: Admins can block syncing of specific file types and deny syncing to non-domain joined PCs.
- Storage: This section allows admins to easily set default storage limits and document retention durations.
- Device Access: This gives admins control over how and from where a user can access their files. This includes allow/deny access from personal devices or specific networks as well as rich Mobile Application Management Intune policies for iOS and Android.
- Compliance: Admins can find quick links to the Office 365 Security and Compliance Center for key scenarios like auditing, data loss prevention, retention, and eDiscovery.
Please have a look at the preview and provide us your feedback and comments below. Our plan is to begin the generally available rollout later next month and subsequently add a link from the Office 365 admin center.
Thank you!

Director, OneDrive Product Marketing
What happened to the feature to allow limiting of external sharing by AAD group? This was part of the original blog post announcing the new admin centre and one that we intended to rely on for our implementation of external sharing. See 'Who can share with external users' section screen-grabbed below from original Microsoft blog https://blogs.office.com/2016/09/26/sharepoint-online-sync-preview-headlines-ignite-announcements-for-onedrive/.

Hi Neil McCafferty,
We discovered a last minute bug in that feature which required us to pull the feature from the ODB Admin preview. You should begin seeing that feature later this month. Thanks!
