(Almost) Full Access to A Group Without Being a Member
I would like to provide full access to a group but I don't want the individual to receive e-mail that is sent to the group. How can this be configured? Thank you for assistance, -bs

Then what I understand is that you only want to give access to the Group files to this user...this is something you can do by means of PowerShell (SPO Management Shell is required here):
(1) Enable external sharing in the Group Site: set-sposite -Identity GroupSiteUrl -SharingCapabilyty
(2) Just add the external user in the Group site

The user is internal.
I want to provide access to everything in the group (no limitations). I just don't want the e-mails sent to the individual. Access should be to all libraries, OneNote, planner, etc.
While I am an administrator, I am not knowledgeable about PowerShell. Please be explicit with any instructions. Thank you.

Yes, I am aware that the user can control e-mail notification. However, the intent is NOT to make the person a group member....but to provide access to the group's libraries and such. Perhaps this level of administrative control is not possible!?
