Hello,

I've enabled External Identities | External collaboration settings in Azure AD but I still can't share a file from a SharePoint Doc Library with anyone outside our organization or invite them to a Teams Meeting. Please see the screenshots and advise. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your reply but SharePoint External Sharing is already enabled. Please see attached screenshot.

    You said that if your problem persists, it means that the SharePoint site policy as such is what is restricting you but I don't see any other SharePoint site policies.

    As far as I can tell, all settings are correct. I have to call it a night so I'll continue working on this tomorrow. Thanks for your help.

    It appears that the settings propagated overnight and external sharing is now working. Thanks again for your help.
