In this video I talk about the new functionality in #sharepoint that allows users to request files from a SharePoint site. This functionality was previously available in #onedrive for business, but it is now being rolled out in SharePoint. However, there are certain requirements that need to be enabled or set up in the #microsoft365 tenant for this functionality to work.
To use the request files feature, users need to be using OneDrive for school or work accounts, and their admin needs to have enabled anyone links for SharePoint and configured the view, edit, and upload permissions for anyone links in the advanced section of the admin center.
To enable this functionality, we need to go to the policies section of the admin center of SharePoint and set the sharing settings to allow anyone with the link and edit permissions. We also need to make sure that these settings are set at the site level.
Once these settings are applied, we can use the request files feature by selecting the folder and clicking on the request files option. We can enter a file description and upload files into the folder.
