Hey all, just after the best way to share files with External users in SharePoint. Our users are increasingly having issues with external users not being able to access our files.

Sometimes its user issue like sending a sharing link only for employees with external users. Sometimes its external users tenant conflicting with ours. However, we’ve been having issues with many external users having dropped access or no access at all even though they were added to permissions.

We haven’t changed any setting in our tenant, and this was a lot smoother couple of months ago. Whats the process in your tenant for external sharing? It would be helpful if you could give me a step by step on how you do it at your org.

Right now, this is us:

• User fille out a form with necessary info.
• Security looks at the domain and make sure it’s safe.
• We whitelist the domain if it’s not already and if full name is specified, we add the guest through Azure and add the person to SharePoint permissions. If full name not specified, go to the SharePoint link and add the user straight to the folder permissions.

Thanks in advance all
