In our O-365 enterprise account - In OneDrive, how to enable only a specific user to be able to share documents externally?

Hi there

In our O-365 enterprise account - In OneDrive, we want only a specific user to be able to share documents externally. All other users should be limited to sharing documents within the organization only.

Is there a way maybe in Microsoft Security and Compliance centers to do that? Any PowerShell? Any other way?

Thank you.

@frob Thanks for posting in our Q&A. For this issue, it is not related to windows 365. So, I will remove windows 365 tag. Thanks.

Hi @frob,

You could refer to michev's suggestion.

Tick the box of "Allow only users in specific security groups to share externally", then select Manage security groups.

Toggle the "Allow only users in specific security groups to share externally" setting and provide the group name: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/manage-security-groups
