SharePoint Access Requests Settings
MicrosoftHi all,
I helped make this improvement happen so if you have any questions, hit me :) Message center post may have expired unfortunately but the documentation has been updated.
There were two pieces to the change:
1) Make it clear who is receiving access requests (especially since it used to default to "someone@example.com" which I'm pretty sure doesn't help ;). It's now clear if you're selecting the default (owners) or another e-mail address of your choice.
2) Show a custom message on the access request page.
Thanks!

hi Stephen
its a great feature but today I came upon a site I set up way back when. For this site the 'group' option greyed out and says 'no owner group defined'. The site definitely has an owner group. any ideas how I can fix this?
thanks
Ella
Hi Ella,
You might have deleted the default site owners group from site.
Thank you,

If you want to reset that default groups configuration (subsite or rootsite) Owners, Members, Visitors (in case of deletion of site migration for example).
You can use that technical page (not available from the settings menu):
- http://Tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/yourSite/YourSubsite/_layouts/15/permsetup.aspx
That will offer you the choice from the existing groups list or create your own.

Hi Ella Visani,
What type of site are you on? Can you send me a screenshot of what you are seeing? Thanks!
