Share externally a Sharepoint View

Is it possible to share a SharePoint view externally so that the external users cannot see the rest of the library?

  • Hi, You can create a new page with list web part with the view designed for external users and then direct them to the page instead of navigating them to the list.

      That would show them only the data you want them to but the external users would still have access to all the list data unless you permissioned each item in the list uniquely to the external users. 

       

      You can achieve this with a Flow but I would always caution giving external users access to a list where there is data that they should be able to see in case of mistakes in the setup of that data. 

       

      My advice - don't attempt it.

        Andrew Hodges It is not the end of the world if they see the other specs but it is preferable to just show them the specs that are relevant for the products they are buying.
