Modern attachments just got better
Look at all the new options we have to configure the permissions: company-wide links, guest links, direct links.
The Permissions options are now updated to account for the External sharing settings in the organization. So you can for example disable Guest links, and the "anyone" checkboxes will disappear. Also, the default permissions stamped on the attachment will also respect the settings configured in SPO.
Thank you for sharing it was not in my knowledge box :) Now have it by your post

Can an organization configure a default? Many customers would like to set "Recipients Can View" as the default setting for all users across all Outlook experiences.
I asked the same question when the feature was showcased on one of the MVP calls, the answer was that you should be able to set this via selecting the appropriate sharing controls in SPO. While you can sure set the default link type to be "direct recipients only", the "edit" setting seems to only effect anonymous links. In other words, I havent been able to configure it like that, but I thought it was just me...

I'm specifically asking about internal sharing (all users in the same tenant vs. External Sharing). I see the various controls around external sharing, but customers would also like to control the experience for users working with each other.
- Great stuff, just tried it out. Thanks for sharing.
Didn't we have these options earlier? They are displayed differently, moving them to a side panel rather than the drop down menu below the attachment. Though I do like the words used to describe anonymous guest links. "Anyone" can view, or edit.
- At least to me is completely new :-)
