Disable Creation of Shared Libraries
piselloa hi, you need to look at managing O365 Groups. Who can create them, any naming and expiry policies, and how making changes to them impacts the other apps that use O365 Groups - which is many. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/admin/create-groups/office-365-groups?view=o365-worldwide
DazzaR Are you saying then to disable the ability to create shared libraries from OneDrive, we need to restrict the ability to create groups? We already prevent group creation in Outlook, but this seems to be a workaround for restricting SharePoint Online team site creation.
It's not that we want to prevent use of SPO forever, but we don't yet have the policies, expiry, governance, etc. in place to manage those sites yet and we're seeing users starting to leverage the tool before we can support it.
Hi Will Nuzum,
How do you prevent Group creation from Outlook and OneDrive only ? I do not want to restrict users from creating Groups from Teams, Yammer etc, but from Outlook and OneDrive (Create a Shared Library). Can you please help ?
Thanks
Raj.
Is there any solution to this. no one wants to restrict people ot create teams and group from teams. But we dont want users to create sharepoint sites from One Drive?? Any help
