Announcement: New OneDrive Admin Center Preview
- Hi Cary - here is TechNet article on how to enumerate domain guids.
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn938435.aspx
I've ticked both the, "Allow syncing only on PCs joined to specific domains," and "Block syncing of specific file types." I've added our domain's guid, and I've added a truck load of extensions to the file type list. Even with these setting active, I am able to sync all the file types that are supposedly blocked to a personal non-domain joined desktop without issue. Is the admin center preview, simply a preview of what we will be able to do in the future, or it is supposed to be actively working at the moment?
I've double checked that I'm indead set as a, First Release Customer.
Thanks,
David
Hi David - meanwhile to get a headstart in debugging this issue - could you run this get-spotenantsyncclientrestriction cmdlet in your SharePoint Online Management shell? (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn917453.aspx53.aspx)
This will let us know if the policy is configured on the service.

Hi DAVID WILLIAMS,
All of the admin settings that you can currently see are live in the product today so they should be working. There may be a slight time delay between when you set the policy and when it takes effect. I'll ping the owner of these features to get some additional info as well. Thanks!

In addition I'm curious about the sharing policy settings. Do these setting only hit Sharepoint or One Drive, or will this also hit O365 Modern Groups and guest access. i.e. If I set the policy to 90 days, will an external guest user lost access to the group they were invited, the group SP site, and Group file repository, after 90 days?
Thanks
David

Hi DAVID WILLIAMS,
I've passed your question on the IP & file type policy issues along to the feature owners as that is the extent of my expertise there.
As for the sharing policies, they apply to both OneDrive and SharePoint Online. These policies will affect O365 Group team sites but they do not effect Group specific scenarios (such as adding a guest into a group). Note as well that the expiration feature in the admin center only applies to anonymous access links.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

The setting I have in place, were set over a week ago. Any help would be appreciated. It is rather important for us to have the ability to prevent syncing of PII/Sensitive data to personal devices.
Thanks, David
Hi David,
The policy configuration should only take up to 24 hours to take effect. Could you reach out to me directly <samyadav@microsoft.com> so that we can debug offline?
Thank you,
