Communication site sharing only with specific user (Companies)
Hello,
following scenario:
Two companies (Company A and Company B)
Both have own Office 365 tenant and sharepoint online sites (team and communication sites).
Both comanpies wants to share sites with the other company.
This is working for team sites, sharing is allowed.
For communication sites it is more complicated:
It should only possible to share the communication site with user from the other company (Company A or Company B).
Communication sites must not be shared with external users from other companys.
Is it possible to configure this?
It is possible to enable sharing for communication sites, but then it is possible to share sites also with other external users which are outside from Company A and company B (tenant settings).
Maybe somebody has an idea?
Thank you
Regards
Marc
- Hi,
You could use domain sharing restriction at site collection level, down side is that it will not be automatically applied based on site template, you will need to apply this setting per site that will require it.

Marc Mönnikes I'm not sure of what you mean but each communication site and modern team site is an independent site collection. Every occurrence of site you see in the modern SharePoint admin center is technically a dedicated site collection.
