Everyone external Share permission in SharePoint Online per note from MS Support
Anonymous sharing will continue to work as usual.
We have already discussed it: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Office-365/Will-anonymous-external-sharing-be-disabled-New-ways-to-govern/m-p/164890#M11087

What about the case for SharePoint Sites where Everyone has been used inside SharePoint Groups to grant everyone including External users access/permissions to the site?
Checking our Tenant via https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-online/get-spotenant?view=sharepoint-ps PowerShell command the "ShowEveryoneClaim" property is already set to True without any action from us.
So will we and any other Tenant administrator still be impacted on the After March 23 change?
Either run the PowerShell cmdlets like
Set-SPOTenant -ShowAllUsersClaim $true
Or implement an ADD Groups approach?
If this has already been discussed in other threads I hope you can redirect me to it since I didn't find it...- Salvatore BiscariMar 08, 2018Silver Contributor
"After this date [March 23, 2018], an external user will see only the content that’s shared with that user or with groups to which the user belongs. External users will no longer see content that’s shared with Everyone, All Authenticated Users, or All Forms Users. By default, content that’s granted permissions to these groups will be visible only to your organization's users."
So, the article is clear. (see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4089534/how-to-grant-the-everyone-claim-to-external-users-in-office-365)
But I understand that in your tenant the "ShowEveryoneClaim" property is already set to True without any action from you, hence you want to know what will happen after March 23, 2018.
StephenRice surely knows the answer...
- Freddy BangMar 08, 2018Copper ContributorYes that is exactly what I'm trying to establish to better understand if an action is really required or not when it comes to "SharePoint Sites" which is on the list of artifacts in the KB from Microsoft..
By now I have checked 3 different tenants and the property is True for all of them which must be default value when enabling External Sharing on tenant level.. None of these tenants has ever been managed via PowerShell before only via the old SharePoint Admin UI..
