Share with anyone with the link setting is grey out, why?
Hi all
I happened to find that the 'anyone with the link' option in Share action is grey out.
I checked the sharing settings and all looks fine. Did I miss something?

Works fine here. Don't forget that the sharing settings can be configured on the individual SC level, so even if the org-wide settings allow anonymous sharing overall, some SC/ODFB libraries might not have the option available.
In my case, I can share just fine from my personal ODFB or from a generic SPO site. I get the same behavior as you when I try to share from a Comm site or Group/Team one. When I look at the settings of the corresponding SC though, I see this:
SharingCapability : ExistingExternalUserSharingOnly
So it seems working as expected.

Hi guys,
Thank you all for the patients.
I checked the odfb site's properties and found SharingCapability is set to Disable, maybe default value for that.
When I set the value to ExternalUserAndGuestSharing by
Set-SPOSite -Identity -SharingCapability ExternalUserAndGuestSharing
It worked!

Hi Justin can you share how to check the ODFB site's properties Justin Liu ? I got the similar case here and don't know what to do.
