Ability to Share with "Anyone" permission change?
Our organization very recently discovered that the ability to share a document from a library in an external-sharing-enabled site seemingly requires higher permissions than it once did. In debugging ...
Make sure someone didn't mess with the Site access requests page. /_layouts/15/user.aspx
Shown here, maybe this got turned off?
Checked this, was left untouched. This issue isn't site-specific, though--it's org-wide.
- Are these group connected sites or stand alone? I've never been able to share with external users without powershelling the sharing options on a group site even though my tenant is set to allow sharing. Wondering if with this latest rollout they are doing they fixed this? What are your tenant SharePoint sharing settings set to in the OneDrive admin?
These are Classic site collections, but my issue isn't with inviting external users, it's with creating anonymous access links, as below.
The permissions of this user, SharePoint's OOTB "Edit", once allowed a link for "Anyone" to be created, now it can't.
I don't see such behavior: everything here appears to work as usual...
