Additional permissions are required for FileBrowser when collaborating externally
Hello! I hope you can help. My colleague has access to an externally hosted MS Teams shared channel. They can collaborate within the channel fine, however when they navigate to the 'Files' tab and select a file (such as Word or PowerPoint) they are asking to provide additional permissions to the FileBrowser (shown in the screenshot below). Does anyone know what may be causing this? It's appears once a day or after a restart.Teams Gives Shared Channel Owners New Method to Request Cross-Tenant Trusts
Microsoft is making it easier for owners of Teams shared channels to request help if they run into a trust problem when adding a member from another domain. If Teams detects a problem with a missing trust, it flags the error to the channel owner and offers a link to a web page to seek additional support. Of course, the tenant might decline to trust the domain the channel owner wants to use, but that’s a different story. https://office365itpros.com/2023/07/18/shared-channels-requests/Unable to share externally on Shared Channels
We are unable to share files and folders on shared channels with external users. We get the following message when trying share with an external email address: “Your org doesn't allow sharing with these people. To continue sharing, remove the highlighted recipients.” We are able to share externally on Standard and Private channels. Guest Access is On in the Teams admin console: In the SharePoint admin console > Policies > Sharing > External Sharing, both SharePoint and OneDrive are set to “New and existing guests”. In the SharePoint admin console > Sites > Active Sites, the team site in question has External Sharing set to “This site can be shared with new and existing guests”. On the General channel we are able to share with external users. However, on the shared channel sites, External Sharing defaulted to “This site can't be shared externally”. There is no edit button. As a workaround, I leveraged PNP PowerShell to enable external sharing with the following command: Set-PnPTenantSite -Url $SiteURL -SharingCapability ExternalUserSharingOnly The SharePoint admin console now indicates that I can share externally on the shared channel site. External Sharing shows “This site can be shared with new and existing guests”. However, I still receive the aforementioned error when trying to share externally. What am I missing? How do I enable external sharing on shared channel sites? Why is this not consistent with SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams standard/private channels?
Shared channel site using Managed Properties
Does anyone know if I can use Managed Properties in a document library that is on a Shared Channel Site in Teams? My admin wants to change one of my communication sites to a Shared channel site but I am using the documents in the library in a number of Highlighted content webparts using managed properties and I am not sure they will work if they are moved. Has anyone done this?
