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.
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...
- Audit logs in the Compliance & Security Center is your bets bet...by the way, I'm curious to know how your contractor managed to break ODFB sharing behaviour...
I'm not sure. All I know is when I followed the path (if you will) to see how this was being shared with everyone I was shown a screen that looks just like a SPO Group Permissions screen with a group 'Everyone' and they had 'contribute' access. I simply deleted the group as Mario recommended and it worked. I believe, in hindsight, I may have inadvertently have done this.
