Externally facing permissions?
- Nov 06, 2019
Hi Jleebiker ,
There are 2 levels of permissions at work here.
1. The group permissions, when a user gets added to the team as a guest they get added to the underlying Office 365 group. There is not a way to give them read only access to the group. By adding them to the group they have edit access to the SharePoint site.
2. SharePoint site permissions - you can give access just to the underlying SharePoint site. If you removed the test user from the Microsoft Team you will should see that they just have read only access to the site.
I don't know of any way to give Read Only access to the underlying SharePoint site whilst still being a guest in the Microsoft Team.
