Document name icon? What is this?
I noticed an "icon" appear beside a document name in a modern document library. I haven't seen it before and want to know what it means.
My first thought was it is a file I have downloaded using Files On-Demand. That this file may become online only due to inactivity.
I noticed the new "share" button appear beside the document. But the two don't appear to be related. The documents above are not shared outside of the team.
Got any ideas?

What about the new share icon that's suddenly appearing to the left of the stacked ellipsis? I haven't been able to find any notes about it. It feels like this isn't functioning properly yet. If you mouse over a file name the icon appears, but if you click the new share icon, it simply launches the file. If you right-click on the icon, it opens the document menu options. If you click to select the document row and then click on the new inline share icon, it opens the Send Link dialog box and launches the document ???
- Thanks Pieter. That makes sense now. Although these were copied from another library and then modified. I have performed the same action today with two more documents and the icon isn't present. I assume the icon appears after a periodic indexing or something similar.
