New Folder Auto Shares with Everyone
Whenever I create a new folder in OD4B (Web version using Edge) it automatically share it with 'Everyone' in 'edit' mode no less and I have to 'un-share' it. What am I missing? This is not expected b...
BTW, the default for the ODfB doclib is to have no explicit permissions at all.
AFAIK, ODfB does not inherit permissions from other SPO site collections.
Have you modified the ODfB document library permissions, instead?
I see and yes, I believe a contractor did. He apparently have 'Everyone' contributor permissions to docs libs when we really wanted each internal functional group (Acct. IT. HR., etc.) to have contribute permissions.
It's not clear to me why you could want to have 'Everyone' contributor permissions to your personal ODfB doclib, which should be used only for your personal files, maybe with some temporary item sharing with other users...
Anyway, go to the permissions for your ODfB doclib and delete the Everyone group from there: this should solve the problem.
One more quick question Mario: is the a way yet to show what folders/file you have shared on your personal OD4B? I realize you can see what's shared with you but not vice-versa. Thank you in advance. Mark
AFAIK there is not a simple way to get such list.
Give a look to this thread: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/OneDrive-for-Business/Shared-Filed-and-Folders/m-p/40120/highlight/true
Maybe jcgonzalezmartin can help...
Thank you Mario!
