Hi @VinodSurvase-1595 ,

As mentioned, to restrict download options for documents such as download a copy, download button in SharePoint Online, here are some options:

Option 1: Grant “Restricted View” Permission to Users
To disable the download option in SharePoint Online, you can grant the “Restricted View” permission level to either a particular user or group which allows only read but not download.

Option 2: Share a File with Block Download Option

Unlike sharing a site or document library, You can share a specific document with download option disabled. To share a file,

Select any office documents, Click on the Share button in the toolbar (or from the context menu)
In the Share Popup, Click on “People in <Your Domain> with the link” or “Specific People” Option. Uncheck “Allow Editing” and enable “Block Download” option.
Click on Apply, and enter your recipient name

Hi @ElsieLu-MSFT , Thanks for reply with details. Can this setting be implemented via admin center or via PowerShell if yes do let me know and if any documents for the same.

Hello.

Sorry but telling how to set permissions without telling how to get to that page provides zero help.
