Anonymous links crawled by public search engines?

Hi,

 

When you create an anonymous link in SharePoint to share a document or a folder with anonymous guests, will that file or folder be exposed to public search engines like Google or Bing?

Is it the same for OneDrive anonymous share links?

 

Any documentation you can point me to on the topic of security and anonymous links would be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Jorge

  • No they are not linked to file paths but random guid urls so they are not crawled.
