Notification when external user accepts sharing invitation
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 :/
"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."
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?
- Thanks 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- Ok, one way to do that is to grant the new group access to the desired library, and deny that group access to everything else, then when you share the site, all the group members can do is access the desired library.
An easy way to do this is to create the new group with no permissions, then grant the group permissions to the desired library. This is easier than creating a group with some permissions and then having to remove the group from all of the lists/libraries that inherit their perms.
