How to move OneDrive app from phone to SD card?

I have looked and searched and cannot find a way to move OneDrive from internal storage on my Lumia 830 to the internal SD card.

When I go to OneDrive in System>Storage>This Device>Apps & Games>OneDrive, the option to "Move" is greyed out and unselectable. There is plenty of room available on the SD Card.

How do I move OneDrive storage to the SD card?

What you are looking at is the OneDrive app. Some system apps have to run on the phone and can't be transferred to the SD card.
No data is stored with the app anyway. It is not OneDrive storage

You don't. But unlike on PC, you don't actually end up with a complete synced copy of your OneDrive folders on the phone. Just the specific things you access, and I'm pretty sure that is classified as temporary storage.
