What does it mean to have limited access in SharePoint?
Limited Access means a SharePoint user or group has permissions to an item or document or page or library within a Site, but does not have permissions to the entire Site. This is normally used when you want to share content that resides within a site with users but not allow to browse the site.
Sharing outside your organization —Allow or prevent external people from accessing files in the shared drive. Sharing with non-members —Allow or prevent shared drive members from giving non-members access to files in the shared drive.
Five Sales team members have Editor access to the document. If the document gets moved out of the Sales team shared drive, the Sales team loses their inherited Viewer access, but the five users still have Editor access. Moving folders in a shared drive can create broad changes to content access.
What happens if you lose access to a shared document?
These default settings override any document-level sharing settings, which might result in some users losing access to documents. If members will lose access, a warning is displayed before the file is moved. The document’s protections still apply if the shared drive has less restrictive protections.
