Hi Renato_Pereira,
here are a few potential reasons why you might encounter difficulties when trying to share files with colleagues within the same tenant:
- Sharing limits:
It's possible that there's a restriction on the number of people you can share with simultaneously. - Account validation:
Microsoft may need to validate your account. - OneDrive status:
Ensure that OneDrive is functioning properly. - Organization restrictions:
Your organization might have implemented restrictions or disabled sharing. - License issues:
Verify if the user has the required SharePoint and OneDrive licenses. - External sharing settings:
There could be an issue with the external sharing settings of your SharePoint or OneDrive sites.
Unable to share OneDrive files - Microsoft Support
