Guest link sharing has stopped working in the OneDrive 5tb business.

Guest link sharing has stopped working in the OneDrive 5tb business. I give all the permissions. (Share with everyone. No login required) I create a link to a folder or file.Friends and acquaintances are trying to open the link. But. They write: Access is prohibited. You do not have permissions to access this resource. And they require you to log in with an account. And you can't log in with a regular account. This is necessary for everyone to whom I give the link, in addition, I also need to give my admin username and password. So that you can open it on your computer.It's absurd!

  • Hello,

    -Tenant-wide Sharing: In SharePoint Admin Center - Policies - Sharing set OneDrive and SharePoint to “Anyone”

    -OneDrive Site Settings: In Sites - Active sites, choose your OneDrive and enable “Anyone” in Sharing

    -Conditional Access: In Azure AD - Security - Conditional Access disable policies that force login on anonymous links

    -Regenerate Link: Create a new “Anyone” link and test it in incognito

      Hello! I don't have access to the SharePoint Admin Center.

       

      • Hello, unfortunately, to change the tenant-wide sharing settings (Enable “Anyone” link) you must be at least SharePoint Administrator (or Global Admin). If you do not have access to the SharePoint Admin Center:

        Ask your Global Admin / IT
        – To assign you the SharePoint Administrator role in Azure AD, or
        – To apply the changes for you on SharePoint Admin Center - Policies - Sharing.

        Alternatively, via PowerShell (to be run with an Admin account)
