Sharepoint access requests

Question

I created a public sharepoint site, which anyone in my organization should be able to access.
But i do not want to keep getting email requests every time someone is trying to get in the site.
Anybody knows how i can set it so that anyone can access without my approval through email?

Answer 1

Hi @bronny8 ,
According to your description, it can be achieved by turning off the "Access request" function.
Click gear in the upper right corner, then click Site permissions-->Change how members can share, turn "Allow access requests" off, click "Save".

Thanks,

Answer 2

In the top right of your Sharepoint site there should be a Share button.

You should then be able to type in everyone except external users > ensure Read is chosen as the permission level > uncheck the Send email (if you don't want people to get a notification) > Share.

This will add everyone with Read permissions.
