Modern Attachments - Cannot set perms
This issue is resolved with build 1711 8730.2175.
MicrosoftHi Mike Tilson,
Thanks for reporting this here. You are correct that setting the default link to "direct" should cause the modern/cloud attachment to default to "Recipients can edit". Let me look into this and see if we can figure out what's going on. Thanks!

MicrosoftStephenRice any updates on this? We are seeing this issue as well. Ours started showing up after we changed the default at the tenant level to be 'Specific People' instead of 'People in <company name>'.
This is making all of our users think modern attachments are broken, and they are reverting to attaching files the old way which is very much not what we want!

Hi Justin Reading,
I believe this issue is fixed but I'd suggest chatting with support to verify that your client has the fix in the update. I'm not familiar enough with the Outlook release cadence to troubleshoot here. Thanks!
