Introducing guest access for Office 365 Groups!
David, we are still in the process of rolling out this feature, so it might take hours/days before you can see this feature light up in your tenant.

Does https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/active-directory-create-users/ help?
I see the settings (still in Preview) by going to the portal, selecting the AAD instance for my tenant, and then selecting the Configure tab. The User Access settings are towards the end. I don't think you need to go near these settings because the default values should allow guest access.

Thanks TOny, I have that all set - as you said they were already set. I could not find those settings in the new portal, only the old portal.
(side note - thanks for the screen shot you attached. I only noticed it when coming back to reply. They don't feature very prominently do they.... Attached images should really show a thumbnail)
I am seeing 'All/Owners/Guests' in the group I've set up, but still get a warning that only individuals from within the organisation can be added when I try to add someone external.
I realise it might be a number of days away. Is there any visual indication to know external group membership is active on your tenant, or do we just keep trying until it works?

Hi Brian Mather and TonyRedmond. Here's a tip aside of the conversation topic that will help when sharing screenshots. Add "Photos" rather than "Choose Files". Photos will appear in the the body of the post. "Choose Files" is more suited to attaching documents.
(I'm catching up with the conversation and wanted to offer this to help future conversations.)
