Files shared with Anyone sometimes prompt users to request acccess to the file
MicrosoftHi folks,
As a matter of fact I do still show up around here 🙂
Let me kick off a thread with some folks internally to see if we can take a guess as to what's going on. My gut is that Chris is correct and the service is latching on to some cached credentials but as you all know, it's tough to nail it down when it doesn't reproduce regularly. If anyone does manage to snag either a trace of this happening or a correlation ID on a request where it occurred, please shoot me a PM. Thanks!

MicrosoftHi all,
Unfortunately, we're still not able to identify a root cause here from our side. If anyone here happens to have this issue reproduce, please send me a PM. If we know the link that was used, the organization that experienced it, and the rough timeframe when this occurred, we should be able to pull out some logs on our side to help understand what is going on here. Thanks!

I've had this happen a few times. It's all internal, people within our organization. The link is to a file directly but it has also happened to a shared folder in OneDrive.
The complication is if it is sent to 10 people it may for for 9 of them. There is no consistency when it works or who it works for.
We are not multi-geo. All within the Greater Toronto Area but working from home during quarantine.
