Thanks StephenRice,

I assume I have to look at the documentation for https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/sharepoint-online/get-spotenant?view=sharepoint-ps and/or https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4089534/how-to-grant-the-everyone-claim-to-external-users-in-office-365 or where to keep looking?

Hi Freddy,

 

I think I can give you the relevant info here:

 

If you want documents that are shared with "Everyone" to continue to be accessible by external users (present and future), then run:

 

Set-SPOTenant -ShowEveryoneClaim $true

 

If you want documents that are shared with "Everyone" to only be accessible by internal users, then run:

 

Set-SPOTenant -ShowEveryoneClaim $false

 

Hope that helps!

 

Stephen Rice
