Hi,

Can I share a whole document library with an external user?

I know how to share individual folders within a library but need to share a whole library with an external sub contractor.

Thanks

Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Please try the following steps:

    Click Library tab-> Shared with (next to the Library settings icon)-> Invite People.

    If you cannot share the library in this way, you may try sharing the current site with the user, and customize his permissions to keep from the site contents.

    For details please refer to:
