Files Shared with Me/By

In OneDrive we get a great view that shows all files that have been shared with you.  Also we get to see files we share with other people.

 

However, if we are in SharePoint Online is there a way in getting a similar experience so that we can know which files on the site collection we may shared with other peopled or shared with us in a single view instead of checking each file to see sharing details?  Thanks!

    I thought in Onedrive SharedWithMe view it'll show all the files shared with you from both SharePoint and OneDrive.

      That might be what I'm recalling then that, that was added to the shared view. Would by nice to have this same ability

      However, I did recall how you can see if files are Shared with SharePoint online. Go to the SharePoint page, and click on Site Usage on the cog in top right, then at the bottom will be a section for Shared Externally which will show any files shared with people outside the site.

        Thank you all. In our case we do not aloe external sharing but will be nice having a view on that same usage report page of the files shared internally for that specific site collection.
  • No, SPO does not provide that feature....however when you work with Office 365 Groups you have the Shared with us

      I thought at some point this was going to be carried over to SharePoint Online, but I could be mistaken. StephenRice anything you can share on this or is my mind failing me?
