External sharing has stopped working
Good morning everyone. We have a simple form for students to request our library to buy new books.
It was set to "share with anyone who has a link" - this morning it has reverted to "anyone in the org...", therefore rendering it useless.
I have checked the forms settings in Admin centre but nothing has changed.
Any pointers as to where I should look next?
Best wishes

gerardc - Find where the original document is uploaded.
If it is uploaded to Sharepoint
-select the document
-click the 3 dots and select "Manage Access"

AccotinkCaptain Yeah, that was the issue this morning. That setting had changed itself and wasn't allowing us to change it back as it was greyed out.
I have seen a few others with the same issue. I just logged back into the form just now and Voila, was able to change it.
I assume there has been an issue on the MS side for a few hours.
Thanks
- AccotinkCaptainBrass ContributorAh okay, sometimes it does take awhile for Sharepoint to sync with new settings. Especially if it has a lot of users to change the permission for on the document.
Glad it worked out!
