Share to "People with existing access" breaks role inheritance
Hi everyone, we figured out a behavior with sharing items/documents in SharePoint which from our point of view is a bug. Let us assume that the user "Jon Doe" is the owner of a SharePoint Sit...
Hi all,
The bad news is that this is unexpected. When sharing with a "People with existing access link", it should only send the user a canonical URL and it definitely shouldn't permission the user to the item.
The good news is that a fix is already rolling out and so this should go away shortly :)
Thanks!

Hi Stephen,
Our lead SPOL developer gave us a run down recently on what was covered at Ignite, but this wasn't touched on. Perhaps you could enlighten us? That is... the Willy Wonker Golden ticket here would be....
A user selects "Copy Link" on a slected doc in the doc library and the following applies:
1. The share type defaults to "People with existing access"
2. Those people include named users already as members of the site, and those to whom the item has already been shared - basically, everyone listed as having access to the item.
3. The inheritance is not broken (...please note, only counts if the item has not been previously shared, which of course in itself will break the inheritance)
Any updates you have on this would be appreciated.
Cheers, Joe
