Body
Each Office 365 Group has one or more designated administrators (aka "Owners") who are responsible for keeping the membership list of the group up to date. All group members have read and write access to all folders and files stored on group's OneDrive (i.e. "Documents" or "Files" section of the group), but they do not have the ability to change sharing permissions on any folders or files (only Owners of the group can do that).
