Hello And_Doh
it's very difficult, when you use a private teams with specific permission. Please attention and be aware, that Teams and SharePoint have different permission concept. For cases with a lot permission, i use even a SharePoint-only site, without Groups 365 connection (Teams).
Maybe i have a way for your solution:
- stop the permission inheritance from site to your library (and other content of your choice)
- give staff read permission on your site
- create a link with view permission and block download option, like this:
I know it's a little bit tricky with a lot of different permission on your site...it is not my primary way, but in your case it helps. Simplier is, when you only create a view link with block download on a specific folder.
Hope this information helps to you.
Have a great day.
