Anonymous Sharing not working with Communication sites
Any news in this topic? My problem still isn't solved. External sharing does not work? Is it working for anyone?!
Thomas, it is working for us. Did you try to enable it using powershell ide ?

Hi
Like others I've been able to get external access working for Communication Sites by using powershell. However external users still need to authenticate using a Microsoft account.
Has anyone got the powershell that will allow me to set sharing to 'anyone with a link' for a specific Communication site?
Note - I don't want to do this across the tenant -just the odd Communication site as part of a proof of concept exercise.

Hi Antony Fearn,
For anonymous sharing to be enabled, you need to have it enabled at the organization level as well. If you only want it on this one site, you'll need to turn it on for your organization, and then turn it off for any sites that you don't want it enabled on. Thanks,
