prevent office 365 group owners from having full control permission on the related SharePoint site

Question

When creating modern team site, the office 365 group owners will be defined as site collection admins and as site owners.

Now we can remove them from been site collection admins, but inside the SharePoint owner group seems they will be hidden inside the list view and when we chose to show them we can not remove them, as follow:-

so is there any way to remove the office 365 owners from having full control permission on the SharePoint site?

Answer 1

Hi @john john ,

Absolutely the short answer to this case is NO. By default the site owners are site collection administrators, so they should have full control permission level. Why not remove the users from site owners if you don't want to have full control permission.
