Guest sees page for 2 seconds then access denied to Group SP site

So you may have seen my posts over the months as I try to use GROUPS to support external users (my customers). It has now been over a week on my latest support ticket with no response or even attempt ...

Hi David,

Thanks for reading my blog. Unfortunately, mine was targeted to a group of support requests that we've been working in SharePoint support. Based on the errors, what seems to be happening is that there are some delve queries that your external users do not have access to.

Unfortunately, I can't speak to anything further than that; what is interesting is that I have another customer with something that looks similar. However, they aren't getting an access denied, but rather are being prompted to sign in.

I'd be interested to know if you've got anything on these groups sites that leverage Delve.

Hi Toby, thanks for responding. Nothing using Delve other than what is built into a standard site provisioned by GROUP creation, what ever that may be. Search/Delve is running on the site ( I have about 20 such GROUPS ) and I confirmed that Search and Delve are active and working on the tenant. I cannot stress enough that this is just a site setup by creating a Group using the Office 365 Outlook interface. Nothing else has been done. Create Group, add guest members, access using the link in the email sent, they see the site for two seconds and then some script or part on the page is failing and redirecting to accessdenied.aspx I have added two support engineers to the group already (admin@infostorage.onmicrosoft.com and melvincraft@outlook.com) to demonstrate - totally reproducible. Can add you as well if you send me an account to use - Pernille-Eskebo.com or @outlook.com to dslight@iasaoffice.org ....
