OneDrive Email when shared link clicked

Question

Hello all,

I have a user that needs to share documents and folders from OneDrive and receive a notification email when the link is clicked. The previous person to do this job always received the email notifications but the new employee does not. I can't seem to find alot of information regarding these email notifications. I did find one Microsoft document hinting that it is no longer a feature under the "new sharing experience". I have been unable to find any settings that control these notifications either. The organization is an on premise AD with Azure AD sync to 365 for SSO and all clients are running the latest version of OneDrive sync app.

Any information or help with this is greatly appreciated.

Dear Austin,

Good day! Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I'm afraid that the feature no longer works in the new sharing experience.

Thanks for your quick reply. That was the same thing I found but I couldn't find anything else about it which seemed odd to me. I would have thought more people would be missing this feature.

Thank You!
