File Types
Good Day We are trying to understand if there is a way that we could block specific file types in being uploaded into OneDrive for business. Not sure we see an option on the admin center similar...
- Jan 10, 2019Sure? There is settings for this , although haven’t tried them..
Also ms doc claims you can?

Yes, exactly! It will take in affect when you sync the file , not uploading it via UI

No, Not quiet exactly :).
You will still be able to drag the file into OneDrive via file explorer, you will just get a sync error on the file and it won't allow it to sync to your OneDrive instance! So at a file system level the file will copy. OneDrive just won't sync it up.
- Jan 11, 2019I knew what you meant, and you wern't exactly wrong per say :), just he did ask if they could drag to the folder, which you still can, it just gets a little unhappy when you do it!
- Jan 11, 2019Sorry if i was unclear!! Its the sync that’s affected
