Thanks Juan.
From the blog article, about the new features: "Ability to invite a user with any email address to collaborate. Whether a user has an Office365 or on-premises Exchange email address, an outlook.com email address, or any social email address, he/she can now seamlessly access the invited organization with inline, lightweight creation of an Azure AD or Microsoft Account."
Unfortunately I have been unable to correctly add an outlook.com user. :smileysad:
In the portal the user appears to be added and the invite appears to be sent, but the recipient never received the invite.
Any ideas?
EDIT
Never mind: the user found the invite in the spam folder...
So it appears it worked!
- We you able to create a Custom Invitation? I don't see how to do that in my demo.microsoft.com tenant
Dean,
I don't know about B2B, but the invitation API (in beta) allows for customizing the experience (the message and directing to a specific URL when complete).
Im working on a blog post about it.
We are now able to share a folder with that external user (having an outlook.com account) also from a Group having the default setting of "ExistingExternalUserSharingOnly".
Awesome!
This is a very welcome update indeed!
