Reduce ribbon options for standard users on document library

Question

Is it possible to have only "New" and "upload" as options in the ribbon over my document library? If so how can I go about completing this?

Hi @Tevon2.0 ,

Per my test, we can use list view formatting to hide the button in ribbon bar. Please refer to the following steps

1. Navigate to the list or document library >> Click on the View dropdown and choose “Format current view” >> Click on “Advanced Mode”
2. Paste the JSON below to hide the New button from the toolbar and click "save"

Here is the json code

{
  "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/view-formatting.schema.json",
  "commandBarProps": {
    "commands": [
      {
        "key": "sync",
        "hide": true
      },
      {
        "key": "automate",
        "hide": true
      },
      {
        "key": "export",
        "hide": true
      },
      {
        "key": "integrate",
        "hide": true
      }
    ]
  }
}
