SharePoint Block Download Function

Question

Would someone be able to advise when the Blocking Downloads toggle and subsequent drop down was implemented on SharePoint. I understand that this functionality was available prior to the toggle but was there a go live date for the toggle?

Hi Emily Morgan I want to help you to answer your question.

You want to know when Blocking Downloads toggle and subsequent drop down will be implemented into Sharepoint.

It's not an easy question because it's very specific and detailed. It would be a feature in a bigger update I assume. And it is not guaranteed that it will be listed in an update/release info or roadmap.

But here you can see the roadmap of SharePoint https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=SharePoint%2CSharePoint%20Syntex

If you need detailed info about it, please contact the official support with this request.
