Sharing

Question

ODFB gets more confusing than ever for me at least. We use 'external' sharing and now when I share a document with an external user and look at the "Information" section this what I see (see screen shot). One portion show me it's shared yet another says it not. What am I missing?

Please verify that the external user has already redeemed the invite.

Hi Mark,
&nbsp;
Popping in to confirm Salvatore's responses. The document is not showing as "shared" because the invitation is pending though you can obviously see the activity of the share. There is work going on (particularly with the new external sharing flow) to ensure that even pending links will show up in manage access. Shared By Me is also definitely on the backlog; stay tuned for more info! Thanks!

Ahhh. that may be it. Also (if you know), it is true external users do not need to login (Microsoft Account) any longer and what happened to being able to show "What I have Shared"? Is that coming?

Thanks Sal... as always...
