Hi All,
I have a question about this scenario:-
1. We have a classic team site collection, which contain 70 sub-sites. and each sub-site has unique permissions (unique Visitor & Members sharepoint groups).
2. Now i want to share 5 sub-sites with a new external user.
3. So i will go to each of the 5 sub-sites and add the external user to the related members group.
4. So the external user will get 5 invitation emails.
5. And the external user will click on one of the invitation email links >> register his account >> login.
6. Then sharepoint online will create a guest user account for him + add him to the sharepoint group.
But what will happen in these scenarios:-
1. Since the user will get his account created as guest account when he click on the first invitation link, so what will happen when he clicks on the remaining 4 invitation links? will the links assume that this is a new user and create a duplicate guest account for him ?
2. When the user login to a sub-site >> sharepoint will automatically start showing the user inside the sharepoint group. but will it also automatically add the user to the reaming 4 sharepoint security groups which have been shared with him ? Or he should access these sites separately? or he should click on the site url inside the invitation email, otherwise he can not access the remaining 4 sub-sites?
Can anyone adivce on my above 2 questions.
Thanks
