External users without Microsoft account cannot access Sharepoint site

Question

Hello,

I have created a Sharepoint site within my organization, and within it I have created a series of folders and files to share with external people (I have enabled external sharing to users who do not belong to the organization, etc.).

The problem is that when I share a folder or file with the "Anyone" or "People who have access" option, the person who receives the email with the invitation (a non-Microsoft email (IMPORTANT THIS)) cannot access it, since which asks you to log in to Microsoft, and when you enter the external email, it tells you that it does not exist (obviously).

I have seen in other threads that there are people who see an option that sends them a code and temporary access is generated, but that does not appear to me.

What I can do? Should I activate any other option?

Thank you.

Hi @SAT TECH ,

As said in this article: Overview of external sharing in SharePoint and OneDrive in Microsoft 365, there are two external sharing models used in SharePoint and OneDrive:

• SharePoint external authentication
• SharePoint and OneDrive integration with Microsoft Entra B2B

Your tenant will automatically create a guest user after enabling SharePoint and OneDrive integration with Microsoft Entra B2B. External users can then access files or folders through the Anyone share link.

To enable SharePoint and OneDrive integration with Microsoft Entra B2B, you can use the following cmdlets:

Set-SPOTenant -EnableAzureADB2BIntegration
