Share documents outside the group
- Sharing a document in Groups is relying on the sharing capability you have for regular SharePoint sites and OneDrive for Business, so you can share documents from the site group in the same way you do from your ODFB or a SharePoint site you belong to

But when it comes to external users, be aware that:
"By default, all SharePoint site collections that are part of an Office 365 Group have the sharing setting set to Allow sharing only with the external users that already exist in your organization’s directory. To change this setting, you can use the Set-SPOSite Windows PowerShell cmdlet." From https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Manage-external-sharing-for-your-SharePoint-Online-environm...:
You can change the default using PowerShell.
Sharing settings are sprawled over too many places, very difficult to figure out exactly which button, check box or switch needs to be activated or disabled to change specific behaviors.
I am struggling to figure out how to control internal sharing, all the articles I have found only specify external sharing. How does one allow members of a site collection to share links ONLY to internal authenticated people and NOT anonymous YET allow the tenant to still use anonymous INTERNAL sharing? (words in caps intentional).
