From Monday 1 July you will no longer be able to share documents to 鈥楢nyone with the link鈥� within SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams.聽This change to file sharing will contribute to improving BU鈥檚 online security.
What does this mean for me?
You will only be able to share documents/files/links on any of these platforms with 鈥榥amed users鈥�, who can either be BU users, or other email addresses specified when the file is shared. There will be no option to 'Share with all'.
What more do I need to know?
- Access to files will be restricted to those 鈥榥amed users鈥� only
- If the link is forwarded to, or access is attempted by someone not on the original 鈥榥amed user鈥� list it will not be accessible
- Links to all documents/files shared in this way will expire after 30 days, after that time the link will no longer be accessible to anyone. Links still required will need to be re-created and re-shared with 鈥榥amed users鈥�.
If you have any queries about the above, please contact the聽聽on (01202 9)65515, freephone 0808 196 2332.
