Howdy,
We currently have our settings set so that no one can share anything outside the organization. However, we've had times when it woudl be very helpful to share a screenshot or something with an external person, or post a link to one on a forum like this, and currently we can't do that.
As a test I tried to set mu personal settings to allow me to share external but it said I had to choose a more restrictive setting.
I took a look in the sharing area and see the two separate sliders in there for SharePoint vs OneDrive and we have both of them all the way at the bottom. Since OneDrive is inside of SharePoint, I don't quite get how those sliders affect one another.
If I set the SP slider at the top and leave the OD slider at the bottom, what exactly would that allow? We use Teams for all our shared documents and that's also in SP so would that allow anyone to share any file from in Teams with anyone, anywhere?
What settings do you use in your tenants? We want to keep our data safe but don't want to make it a pain for people to their jobs if they'd need to post a picture somewhere or something like that.
Thanks!

Hi all,
Looks like @Chris Webb has been giving the best guidance but I'll plug this article from our side as well :)
