How to restrict access to a specific folder in SharePoint Online

A lot of organization, particularly smaller businesses, will have one SharePoint site that all members of staff have access to. If this is the case for your organization but you want to restrict access to specific folders, today's video will come in very handy.

We're demonstrating how you can restrict access to a specific folder in SharePoint Online. We will explain two processes: how you can change the type of access users have as well as how you can remove access entirely.

As always - please like the video if you've found it useful and subscribe to the channel.

I believe you also have to block inherited persmissions. Also, I've done this and only one user has access but other users can still see inside that folder! I noticed under Advanced, there is a more option and when you go there, you can see other groups having access! Do we remove those too? I also removed everyone and ran the "Check Permission" on a user and it showed "Contibutor Acces", even though no one is showing as having access!?

Sorry but, i have a question. If i block access to any folder, can a member can edit data with powerapps. I mean if i block the directory, can any member can modify the list i put in ( with a client side power apps ) ?
Thx
