Conflict In Using Account 1 In Account 1 MS Team / SharePoint and Using Account 2 To Login To Azure DevOps

Question

Conflict In Using Account 1 In Account 1 MS Team / SharePoint and Using Account 2 To Login To Azure DevOps

Thoa Huynh 81

Normally, we will use Microsoft (MS) Team with Account 1. This MS Team synchronizes with Account 1 Sharepoint about everything (user list, documents). We usually upload the common documents to Account1 SharePoint to share inside Account 1 members. We often get these links in SharePoint to include into requirement in Azure DevOps. Inside Azure DevOps is using Account 2 (Company require to do). Therefore, we could not open these links. System requests us to log out Azure DevOps then log in again by Account 1 to open these links. This is inconvenient and un-security. We have the idea to add all Account 2 into a specific project in Account 1 MS Team. Then these Account 2 users will be synchronized into Account1 SharePoint then we can open the file. However, by this way currently we cannot login to Account 1 SharePoint by Account 2 account (even I added them into Account 1 MS Team/Account1 SharePoint). Could you please help to take a look?

I want to comfirm some information.

Whether Account1 users and Account2 users are Microsoft 365 account users?

Based on your description, I understand that you want to Account2 users can access SharePoint sites that store files and Account1 users can access. If it is not right, please correct me.

Good morning EmilyDu,
I am very happy when receiving your feedback. I would like to answer your questions below:
Whether Account1 users and Account2 users are Microsoft 365 account users?
[Thoa] Yes

Based on your description, I understand that you want to Account2 users can access SharePoint sites that store files and Account1 users can access.
[Thoa] Yes, more exact is when we are in Azure DevOps by Account2, we click on the Account 1 SharePoint link, we can download document on SharePoint successfully without requiring us to log out Account 2 then login by Account 1 to download (we use Account 1 to upload this document to SharePoint).

Have a nice day^^

Hi Emily,

I know that Account 1 user and Account 2 user are Microsoft 365 account users.

Account 1 is a smaller organization which belongs to the bigger organization (Account 2). For example: Account 2 is ABC then Account 1 is ABC-xyz.

Have a nice day,
Thoa

Answer 1

@Thoa Huynh

First, you could enable external sharing both in the tenant level and site level.
(1)Enable external sharing in the tenant level. Go to SharePoint admin center -> Polices -> Sharing -> Set Anyone in the Content can be shared with section.

(2)Enable external sharing in the tenant site level. Go to SharePoint admin center -> Sites -> Active sites -> Select the site -> Sharing -> Set Anyone in the External shaing.

Second, share a file with Anyone link, copy and paste the link into Azure DevOps. Then you could access these files with Account2 users.

Hi EmilyDu,
I think it is an excellent answer, I vote 5 stars for it. I do not have Admin in SharePoint so I will ask IT in my company.

By the way, I have one small related question that why from Account 1 Microsoft Team, I can not chat to anyone in Account 2 Microsoft Team and vice versa. Could you please help me, thank you so much?

Have a nice day^^,
Best Regards,
Thoa
