Shared channels in Private teams - External sharing
I have enabled shared channels in Teams Admin center, B2B direct connect configurations are done in Entra Identity and sharing externally from Public team shared channel from our tenant is working ok...
The problem you are facing looks to me like it is a SharePoint Administration sharing issue. In order to share content externally whether it is in Teams or SharePoint, there must be external allowed sharing on the SharePoint team site that Teams is enabled on. If the SharePoint/OneDrive sharing policy for the tenant does not allow external sharing, no matter what you do in Teams or Azure will over-ride this.
You may need to go into the SharePoint admin center and find the team site that is used with your team in Teams and make sure that it is set to allow External sharing.
If external sharing is allowed here, you may also need to check the settings on your team site and make sure that it allows "New and existing guests" to ensure it allows you to share with external users.
