Hi Yann_49​ 

 

yes, it works, but M365 Groups/Teams permissions are different to SharePoint permissions. M365 Groups/Teams known Members and Owners for the whole M365 Group/Teams, in SharePoint you can use different permission per library, list, folder or items. Make sure that the authorization concepts do not interfere with each other and that you no longer open files with many interruptions or non-transparent authorizations.

 

Option 4:

  • create a M365 Goups/Teams for a space to work together with Member permission for both teams. Every Member knows, that all in this Group/Teams is readable for both teams (outer loop), when i have informations only for my teams, it's stored in the team teams (inner loop). It is simple and transparent and should help users avoid filing things incorrectly.

 

Best, Dave
