Shared folder sync not possible anymore?! Workaround?
Thanks for the reply.
Ohh, you are right - thanks for the hint. Its a OneDrive consumer article.
But my problem is solved.
Solution:
My colleague was not able to see on the web UI the "Sync button".
The reason was, that we have disabled the option "Show the Sync button on the OneDrive website" under settings.
After enabling this option, my colleague was able to see the "Sync button" on the web UI.
The article you referenced is about OneDrive consumer, so it does not apply to OneDrive for Business.
Your colleague should indeed be able to sync with the OneDrive client (NGSC) any folder you share with him. He should go, on the web UI, to the "Shared with Me" view, click on the shared folder, and then click on Sync in the action bar.
Hope it helps...

Where did you find the option ""Show the Sync button on the OneDrive website"
I have the same problem you had and I couldn't find this option in the settings.
