Question

Does External collaboration settings impacts Cross tenant access B2B Collaboration and B2b Direct connect?

test A 86

Hi team,

The difference between External collaboration settings impacts Cross tenant access is Cross-tenant access settings are used to manage B2B collaboration and B2B direct connect with other Azure AD organizations. For B2B collaboration with non-Azure AD identities (for example, social identities or non-IT managed external accounts), use external collaboration settings. Is there any other differences??

I wanted to know what type of impact External collaboration settings will effect on Cross-Tenant Access (B2BCollaboration and B2B Direct Connect) on the Tenant??
