Delete the "Shared with us" link on navigation menu for modern sites
Hi everyone! I've tried to remove the lin on the navigation bar called "Shared with us". It appears whenever it wants and disappear... I've read many posts but it looks that no one have tried...
Hello,
Is it possible for you to reconsider the idea of removing the link that is auto generated?
The value behind the link is to identify data that is shared through the specific MS Teams channel, to other areas. This is a way to manage the data lifecycle and ultimately, GDPR.
Is there a reason you are using a Team site and not a communication site? Is the "Frontpage" the landing page of your SharePoint Online environment?
I could gladly help you with the SPO/Teams architecture. With a communication site, the "shared with us/delt med os" will not be visible.
Yours sincerely,

Hi
For me, the first issue is, that it pops out in the middle of a "structured" list. That is MAJORLY poor design.
The second issue is, that I have made a site suited for my teams needs, and this "shared with us" is not part of our needs, as nothing will be shared with us (in this team).
I assume that "removing it from the list" would be a fairly simple task, (the functionality could still be part of the site, just no shortcut sometimes showing up).

- I will not argue with you there in regards of the design.
However, to solve your issue. Please try to create a private channel. A private channel does by default not allow "external" collaboration. As you mentioned, nothing will be shared in that specific team. In that case, a private channel will also allow you to have a "zero-trust" solution.
By creating a private channel, the "shared with us" link will not show up.
Please mark as best reply if this solved your issue. 🙂
Yours sincerely,
