OneDrive Group Policy Application

We are trying to configure the OneDrive client behavior on our servers to prevent the clients from using too much drive space. The group policy is being written to the servers registry correctly but it seems like every policy that requires a tenet ID isn't applying.

We followed the MS documentation and set the tenet ID but they don't take effect.
Is there something special I'm supposed to do other than just paste the plain tenet ID into the policy?

This is a fake tenet ID.

    Hi @Michael McGough ,
    Welcome to Q&A forum!

    Please check to make sure the tenant id you entered is correct. Please run the following command to update the Group Policy immediately after configuring the policy to check this issue.
    gpupdate.exe /force

    If it does not work, please try to set the following registry key to check this issue:
    [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\OneDrive\DiskSpaceCheckThresholdMB]"1111-2222-3333-4444"=dword:0005000

    where "1111-2222-3333-4444" is the tenant ID and 0005000 sets a threshold of 5000 MB.

    For reference: Set the maximum size of a user's OneDrive that can download automatically

    Any updates, please let me know.
