Link to Advanced permissions management disappeared from SharePoint Online Manage Access menu
Yes there are other posts with this. Microsoft guy chimed in said it shouldn't be that way, so my guess is it's a bug. Targeted release tenants are getting this, so you can get it back if you go back to normal release, but you'll lose new shiny's. Kind of the trade off for targets release. If it's affecting you in a negative way I would suggest putting a request in so hopefully it gets looked at quicker if it gets reported.
Here is the other thread.

No resolution yet but have a work around so that I could finish configuring the permissions: I switched back to classic by clicking on 'Return to classic SharePoint' from the bottom left corner of the document library.
Once in classic, to access advanced permissions:
1. Select your file/folder
2. Click ... > click Share
3. Click Shared with from left side menu
4. Click ADVANCED link at the bottom
Now you have the full advanced permissions menu again.
MicrosoftHi all,
Absolutely not intentional :) The team is investigating now. Thanks for your patience!

Update: the 'Advanced' link is back now. It's a small link at the bottom left corner of the 'Manage Access' window for me.
Thanks Microsoft!
