OneDrive/SharePoint: Prevent users from full-syncing folders/files


I have a client that would like to restrict their employees (users) from syncing the entire SharePoint files library. Instead, they'd like it so users can only sync certain files or folders. Ideally, AAD integration would be great so they can be like user X can sync Folders A, B and C but user Y can only sync B and D.

Anyone know if this is possible?


Solution

  • Per my test there is no feasible solution for your needs at this moment. For now, we just could limit files to sync at site level or library level, there is no way to limit at folder level per users.

    Here is an official article for your reference: Limit sync for a SharePoint site (microsoft.com)
