Nested AD Group synced to AAD, used for SharePoint Permissions
Hi, I need some guidance on how synced and nested AD groups work in SharePoint Online. I have my usual onPrem organizational AD groups (Domain Global) for deparments. Then I have target specific...
Is is possible that SharePoint permissions just take way longer than expected to calculate if applied through AD groups?
I have just remembered this behaviour. What's the timer job schedule on permission calcuclations in SP Online?
I'll have to check my environment, but I am pretty sure we are doing this in a couple places.
The only time restriction I have seen is waiting for the dirsync to occur, outside of that, I've always seen that level of permissions to be pretty instant.
Do your groups have actual "Display Names" in AD? I have seen where sometimes that is left out and those do not work in SPO without a Display Name field.
