Objectifs :
This document aims to provide a comprehensive guide on how to grant access to a SharePoint site for external users, detailing the necessary steps, permissions, and security considerations involved in the process.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction to External Access in SharePoint
Granting access to your SharePoint site for individuals outside your organization can enhance collaboration. However, this capability is contingent upon your company's policies regarding external sharing. This guide will walk you through the process and considerations for adding external members to your SharePoint site. -
Understanding Company Policies
Before attempting to add external users, it is crucial to understand your organization's strategy regarding external access. If your company does not permit external invitations, you will receive an alert when trying to add an external member. -
Types of SharePoint Sites
It is important to note that sharing is only possible with team SharePoint sites. Communication sites do not allow for external sharing. Ensure you are working within the correct type of site to proceed. -
Steps to Add an External Member
Array -
Setting Permissions for External Users
Array -
Security Considerations
For security reasons, guests cannot invite others to the SharePoint site, regardless of their permissions. Regularly review who has access to your site by checking the members list. You can change permissions or remove members as necessary. -
Managing Guest Access
To view and manage your SharePoint site's guest list, visit the permissions panel. Here, you can adjust permissions or delete guests. Always grant only the necessary permissions and remove individuals who are no longer collaborating with your team. -
Conclusion
Understanding how to manage external access to your SharePoint site is essential for maintaining security and effective collaboration. By following the outlined steps and considerations, you can ensure that external users have the appropriate access while safeguarding your organization's resources.
FAQ :
Can I grant access to my SharePoint site to someone outside my organization?
Yes, you can grant access to external users, but it depends on your organization's policies. If external sharing is not allowed, you will receive an alert when trying to add an external member.
What types of permissions can I assign to external users on my SharePoint site?
You can assign external users different levels of permissions: 'Read' allows them to view content, 'Edit' gives them the same access as internal members, and 'Full Control' allows them to manage the site, but they cannot access Office 365 group resources.
How do I add an external user to my SharePoint site?
To add an external user, go to the members tab in your SharePoint site's contact sheet through Outlook, and invite them by entering their email address.
What happens if I want to remove an external user from my SharePoint site?
You can remove an external user by visiting the site's permission panel and deleting them from the members list.
Are external users able to invite others to the SharePoint site?
No, external users, regardless of their permissions, cannot invite others to the SharePoint site for security reasons.
Quelques cas d'usages :
Collaborating with External Partners
A marketing team can invite external partners to their Teams SharePoint site to collaborate on a campaign. By granting them 'Edit' permissions, the partners can contribute to documents and share insights while ensuring they do not access sensitive internal resources.
Project Management with Clients
A project manager can add a client as a 'Guest Visitor' to a SharePoint site dedicated to a project. This allows the client to view project updates and documents without giving them full access to the internal team’s resources.
Training and Workshops
An organization can create a SharePoint site for training materials and invite external trainers as 'Full Control' members. This enables them to manage the content and facilitate workshops while maintaining security over internal resources.
Regular Access Review
A compliance officer can regularly check the members list of a SharePoint site to ensure that only current collaborators have access. They can remove any external users who are no longer involved in projects to maintain security.
