Allow syncing OneDrive accounts for only specific organizations
Verified with Microsoft OneDrive 26.153.0809.0004 — updated on July 10, 2026
Supported on: At least Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7
Path in the GPO console
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\OneDrive Description
This setting lets you prevent users from easily uploading files to other organizations by specifying a list of allowed tenant IDs. If you enable this setting, users will get an error if they attempt to add an account from an organization that is not allowed. If a user has already added the account, the files will stop syncing. If you disable or do not configure this setting, users can add accounts from any organization. To block specific organizations instead, use "Block syncing OneDrive accounts for specific organizations." This setting will take priority over the "Block syncing OneDrive accounts for specific organizations." Do not enable both policies at the same time.
