Office365 OneDrive Share - Link cant be sent to external email address
I am having the same issue. Our OneDrive admin console is set to allow anonymous sharing of URL's
Yet, anytime I enter a person outside of our organization, the error is:
'The link can't be shared because at least one recipient isn't valid'
What is causing this?
I am having the identical issue when attempting to share a OneDrive folder to a specific external email address. All permissions are properly setup to permit external sharing with users who accept the invitation and are able to authenticate their email on the MS side.
I'm having the same issue - External sharing is set to "Most permissive" in the OneDrive admin center but users can only specify internal email addresses when sharing files and folders. Attempting to share with an external user produces "The link can't be sent because at least one recipient isn't valid".
Looking at existing Microsoft documentation such as this: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Manage-sharing-in-OneDrive-and-SharePoint-ee8b91c5-05ec-44c2-9796-78fa27ec8425?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US seems to imply that this is not expected behavior.
Peter Lundstedt I had the same issue, but then realized I need to go into each Shared Library and set the permission to allow anyone with a link. Hope that helps.
