Onedrive collaboration between multiple tenants
- May 19, 2017
There are ways to get this done with B2B. This involves using our APIs and using scripts to bulk onboard people from the other organization. And enabling self service sign-up for new users who join the other company.
Scripts: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-b2b-code-samples
Self service sign-up portal: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-b2b-self-service-portal
You can see a demo of the self service portal in my talk: https://aka.ms/b2bmechanics
Then, run a PowerShell script to make these users visible in SPO:
The ability to search for existing guest users in the SharePoint Online people picker is OFF by default to match legacy behavior. You can enable this using the setting 'ShowPeoplePickerSuggestionsForGuestUsers' at the tenant and site collection level. This can be set using the Set-SPOTenant and Set-SPOSite cmdlets, which allow members to search all existing guest users in the directory. Changes in the tenant scope do not affect already provisioned SPO sites.
We have licensed the guest users wtih E3 Licenses.
Our license is Office 365 Education E3 for Faculty.
Is this enough?

Hi Sarat/Hendra,
I think we should setup a 30 min Screen Sharing Session with Sarat where we exactly show him what/how of our current setup and what issues we are facing to assign apps to invited B2B user.
Sarat: Based on your availability, could you please advise if this could be possible this week? What are your preferred time. Hendra will setup a skype meeting with you directly.
Regards,
Amit
