guest expiration
Hi all,
The Expiring External Access feature mentioned in the documentation above hasn't been rolled out yet which is why it's not showing up in your UI 🙂 Looks like our documentation went live a little early. Keep an eye on Message Center for the latest details on this feature! Thanks!

MicrosoftHi alexrademeyer,
Expiration will only be applied to guests who are accessing via sharing links, direct permissions or SP Groups. If the user is accessing via an O365 group or security group, they will not expire.
If you want users to expire from those constructs, check out the Azure AD Access Reviews feature. These features are designed to work in concert with each other 🙂 Thanks!

This feature has been launched and running relatively smoothly, congratulations.
I have found a bug and i believe it is (loosely) related to my original concenrs about the interactions between this feature and Teams/Groups:
typically, the expiration warning emails go to group OWNERS (because they are by default site collection owners), this makes sense, any (typically) works like a charm.
BUT, if the setting for "send copies of team emails and events to team members’ inboxes" is ticket, the expiration email actually goes to all members of the O365 group- not only the owners.
This is not expected, the documentation claims that the mail should only go to "owners" (and typically it does). something about this setting makes it send to all members of the group.
I have been trying to explain this to support, and now PG, for months...... but you know how that goes. I am talking to myself 😉 maybe you can understand this better than they can.
