Microsoft’s OneDrive will quickly get one other helpful coverage for Office 365 admins.
The coverage would permit admins to dam the importing of latest recordsdata which have particular extensions or filenames, in response to the Office 365 roadmap.
The entry there notes:
“This setting lets you enter keywords to prevent the OneDrive sync app (OneDrive.exe) from uploading certain files to OneDrive or SharePoint. You can enter complete names, such as “setup.exe” or use the asterisk
as a wildcard character to symbolize a sequence of characters, corresponding to *.pst. Keywords aren’t case delicate.”
The function may enhance community efficiency and storage utilization by blocking the importing of momentary log recordsdata, movies or different non-essential gadgets, or assist with data governance.
When recordsdata are skipped, that is indicated to the consumer with the “Do not enter” image, and Sync Center could have an entry explaining why the file was not uploaded.
The function, which is likely one of the most requested on UserVoice, is anticipated to roll out in December and is already out there to Office Insiders utilizing OneDrive (model 20.201).
