employees have emails with different domain names but one of those employees needs access to all Sharepoint folders/files. He is an owner with one domain name and a guest with another domain name. How do I give him access to all files/folders in Sharepoint ?

    Hi @Lisa Freeman ,

    First, make sure external sharing is enabled.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/turn-external-sharing-on-or-off

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/change-external-sharing-site

    Then You can ask the site owner to grant him the appropriate permissions directly at the site level.

    Click the small gear in the upper right corner of SharePoint----Site permissions----Advanced permission settings to enter the following page:

    Then click Grant Permissions and enter his account and the permissions you want to grant it in the pop-up window. Click share and the other party will receive the email.
