Millions of files migrated to One Drive for Business from a file server with inherited permissions
We have millions of files migrated to One Drive for Business from file server with inherited permissions that was at the file server. The migration was done using Sharegate.
Is there a way to delete the migrated inherited permissions at one drive for business. or workarounds?

Mohammad Amer ChrisWebbTech is correct, you can switch back to Classic, go to site content, documents and from there get to the permissions where as Chris says you can get to the setting 'delete unique permisisons'.
- Thanks Tanya.
I have custom permissions that migrated from file server that will be lost. I need only to remove group permission.
do you have workaround?

Mohammad Amer- You made it sound like you wanted all permissions reset. If you copied these to a group site then you’ll have to go edit the members SharePoint group and remove the office 365 group from being a member of that group.
- In SharePoint you used to be able to just go to the document library settings and permissions then click on delete unique permissions and that would basically wipe out all your sub permissions.
- Hi Chris,
But our case in One Drive for Business and I think it differs.- Shouldn’t. It’s the same tech. But they have been changing how sharing links thou so it could change but have you tried it?
