Thanks for the question! We'd love to hear from our customers like you on the experience and what you think on it. When it rolls out on Windows, please keep your feedback and suggestions coming!
Is this the page where the AMA panel are reading the “questions in the chat” from? It feels like the questions being addressed are from a pre-currated list and not the questions in this feed here. Or are we on the wrong page for the AMA questions to put to the panel?

I saw some view of the new Hero Link, seems very simple. How that will affect the behavior of "Manage access" (People, Groups, Links, etc.)?
I think the Manage access module will still be used, especially for managing users and groups who have been given access to a file. We can remove them from there. But the list of different links we used to create won’t be needed anymore. The link will be the same, whether you are sharing with a specific person, or a link that works for everyone in your org.

The hero link will unite sharing with manage access so it's all one seamless experience - for people, groups, links, folder permissions, etc. Check out this blog for visuals and a breakdown: Simple, Smart, and Secure: The next step in sharing files in Microsoft 365 | Microsoft Community Hub

Love the awesome work the team has put together! 😍
Also awesome animations in the keynote! What is the best way to Sync OneDrive
1 - Sync OneDrive2 - Add Shourct to OneDrive ?
what is the best way from Performance , 300K Limit etc?
and there is Admin option to deploy "Add Shourct to OneDrive" for Admin in GPO . like have in Sync ?
Do you really need to keep 300K files synced and ready for ondemand use? I try to remove OneDrive shortcuts to content I am not frequently using now. Then I won’t hit that limit.
Does the Hero link break if a file is moved to a different location?
- Miceile Barrett

Great question. Hero links will remain the same, with the same access, when a file is moved to a location within a site collection. Across site collections, users will have the option to maintain access, or not, with existing users on the file.

So many exciting developments! Love the change of logo as well. Is there any change on the cards for the Sharepoint logo? File housekeeping AI for Owners is really important as well for the future i.e. being able to delete, organise, remove the duplicates and recommend files for archiving; bring it soon please! Hero link - we cannot wait!
