I have just been told that a new

00:00:02

consultant will come to work for my

00:00:04

team with a few of his colleagues.

00:00:07

I'm going to have to give him and his

00:00:09

colleagues access to my SharePoint site.

00:00:11

To do so, let's go to the gear icon

00:00:14

on the top right of the screen.

00:00:16

Site Ermissions.

00:00:19

One problem I can easily notice right

00:00:22

away is that for these consultants,

00:00:25

making them site owners is

00:00:28

simply not possible.

00:00:30

Making them members of the site will

00:00:32

not give them enough rights and making

00:00:34

them visitors will again not give

00:00:36

them enough as they will only be able

00:00:39

to read the content of this site.

00:00:41

What can I do?

00:00:43

Well, I'm going to go ahead and

00:00:46

create my own permission group that

00:00:48

will be set right in between owners

00:00:52

and members of a SharePoint site.

00:00:54

To do so,

00:00:55

let's go to Advanced ermission settings.

00:01:00

And in the top left you

00:01:01

will find the create group.

00:01:04

I'm going to name this group.

00:01:07

Extension consultants.

00:01:12

You can decide who can do

00:01:14

the membership of the group.

00:01:16

Who can edit the membership?

00:01:18

Do you allow request to

00:01:20

join all of the groups?

00:01:21

Are you going to accept the request?

00:01:24

If yes or no,

00:01:25

who will get the request by mail?

00:01:27

But most importantly you can choose

00:01:30

the permission level for this group.

00:01:33

We said that Full control was not an option.

00:01:38

EDIT as a member was not enough,

00:01:40

therefore I'm going to give them the design.

00:01:43

It's important left click

00:01:45

on design I can now create.

00:01:48

What is now the external consultants group?

00:01:50

This group as of yet is emty.

00:01:53

I'm the only one in IT to

00:01:56

add people in that group.

00:01:58

I simply have to go to new.

00:02:01

And add users to this group.

00:02:05

I can now start adding people to my new

00:02:09

permission group that I just created.
