I have been working on a KPI presentation

00:00:03

for my colleagues from the sales team

00:00:06

and I would like now to share that

00:00:08

presentation to one of our assistants.

00:00:11

That person is not in the SharePoint site.

00:00:14

Several options are offered to me.

00:00:16

The first thing to notice is that in

00:00:19

order to share the KPI PowerPoint,

00:00:21

I will not have to add the assistant

00:00:24

to the complete Sales SharePoint site.

00:00:28

This would be counterproductive

00:00:30

to give him access to so much

00:00:33

information just for one PowerPoint.

00:00:35

Let's see how I can share a document to

00:00:38

someone outside of my SharePoint site.

00:00:41

Several options are offered to me.

00:00:43

I'm going to click on the share button

00:00:46

right here and start creating a link

00:00:49

to that document from the get go.

00:00:52

I can start by adding a name.

00:00:54

Let's share it to Deezer.

00:00:56

Decide if this I can edit,

00:00:59

view or can view and not download.

00:01:04

I can write her an e-mail and

00:01:07

then click on invite.

00:01:08

An invite will send her an e-mail.

00:01:11

If I write anything in that box,

00:01:14

this text will go with the e-mail.

00:01:17

But what if I'm in a meeting

00:01:19

in teams with Visa?

00:01:21

Well,

00:01:22

I can just copy the link and paste it

00:01:24

in a team's conversation or maybe in

00:01:27

another mail that I already started with.

00:01:31

I can also use the three ellipses

00:01:34

and use the share in Outlook option.

00:01:37

This will automatically open an

00:01:40

e-mail window with a link to the file.

00:01:45

This is main address is already

00:01:47

in the two compartment.

00:01:50

One thing to notice in terms of security

00:01:53

is that when I share a file like this,

00:01:56

I would also invite you to take a look

00:01:58

at the gear button, the link settings.

00:02:02

By default my company these

00:02:06

links are people you choose.

00:02:08

I can only share with specific

00:02:11

people I choose.

00:02:12

You could also use the second type,

00:02:15

which basically means that anyone

00:02:17

inside of your organization could open

00:02:20

the link should they stumble upon it.

00:02:23

The first one that is not available in

00:02:27

my company would be open to anyone,

00:02:30

absolutely anyone inside,

00:02:31

just like outside your organization.

00:02:34

This would mean that this is the

00:02:38

least secure type of link here

00:02:40

in terms of good practices,

00:02:42

we will strongly advise you to

00:02:45

always use people you choose.

00:02:47

This allows Microsoft to realize

00:02:50

specifically who is intending

00:02:52

on opening a document.

00:02:54

If you have to share it though

00:02:56

to quite a big group of people,

00:02:58

well the second one would also work as

00:03:01

it is strictly inside your organization.

00:03:05

Once you have shared that document,

00:03:08

we would also advise you maybe a few days,

00:03:11

few weeks later maybe to go to the

00:03:14

three ellipses on the KPI presentation

00:03:16

and click on Manage Access.

00:03:21

We can see right here that Lisa has a key,

00:03:25

a link and she can edit.

00:03:28

If I go to Links, I can see the

00:03:32

specific link I sent her and

00:03:34

once she gave me her feedback,

00:03:36

I'm going to remove the link.

00:03:39

The idea is not to leave

00:03:43

opened links forever,

00:03:44

and now with that option you are

00:03:48

allowed to share documents to

00:03:50

someone outside your SharePoint

00:03:52

site without having to share

00:03:55

the entire SharePoint site.
