Some External Users "no results found" in Permissions
Please try the following Powershell line:
Set-SPOTenant -ShowPeoplePickerSuggestionsForGuestUsers $True
You may need to connect to SPO Powershell first, by executing:

A quick update. I set this property on both the tenant and site collection, but it seems it was already resolved. The client just re-sent an invite to the external user, he accepted and that user who was missing from the picker before now showed up immediately after processing the invite. So I think it has something to do with that. But, hope this helps too. Thanks!

Good to know. And yes, you need external users to accept invitations and sign in before they appear in people picker.
- Doug AllenJan 29, 2018Iron ContributorYep I'm aware of that, but they did accept the invite and login before (had been logged in for like 8 months), but never showed in the people picker where others did. A re-invite seemed to kick it loose, weird.
