Notification when external user accepts sharing invitation
- Aug 25, 2016
Within the Security & Compliance center you can filter by accepted invitations. So no email alert but at least you can get to the infromation:
Create a group for the external users, set its perms as desired
Then when you Share a library, click the More Options link, scroll to bottom of the popup form if necessary, change the group from Members to the new Group.

Hi Dean_Gross,
The group is already created and permissions given and the goup is added to the library.
Not sure i'm following below correctly as i am not seeing a more options when inviting users to the library via the Shared with in the ribbon.
Am I missing something? Sorry :/

That is strange, your screen is different than mine, see below. I'm not sure why that would be. In my example, I am the Site Collection Admin, what role are you in your site?
- Damien FloodAug 26, 2016Iron ContributorThanks Dean,
I do get the same screen above but only when sharing a full teamsite and not a library.
In my scenario I wanted to share the library and not the full teamsite.
Cheers

Hi Dean_Gross,
Does that send an email alert when the external first accesses the library? Or does that send an email alert then the library is shared?
