bart_vermeersch,

 

Can you give me some more details on how the site is set-up and what exactly you are sharing? Are you trying to share the entire Site Assets folder or just some items inside of it? When I open up the Site Assets library, the "Share" button is greyed out so I'm not sure how you're getting to the dialogue. Thanks!

    Hello StephenRice thanks for looking into it!

     

    The Share button is shown (and enabled) as soon as we select a file (or folder).

     

    It is a folder we wanted to share within the siteassets in the root site of our tenant

    https://tenant.sharepoint.com/SiteAssets/

    I checked the behavior in another library of that site and it is identical.

     

    The group Everyone has already read access to the library, so the link for people with existing access will work as well, maybe that is the reason the option is grayed out?

     

    If that's the case, the information is in the information popup is incorrect (your organisation is preventing you from selecting this option) and the reason is not that intuitive for the user trying to create a link for the entire organisation?

      Hi bart_vermeersch,

       

      Thanks for the additional details. Can you check one more thing for me? Using the SharePoint Online Management Shell, it is possible to disable only organization links on a single site collection. The parameter is "DisableCompanyWideSharingLinks" in Get/Set-SPOSite. Can you check the value for that site? Thanks!
