About Link Sharing
Overview
Link Sharing is used to configure the integration used by Link Sharing.
You can also delete shared files / unshare files that have been shared.
The link-sharing integration platforms are SharePoint and Box.
| Integration | Description |
|---|---|
| SharePoint | Configures the site settings that serve as the upload destination. For details on the site configuration, refer to here. |
| Box | Configures the Box password notification email template. Configuration is done on the Box tab of the Link Sharing screen. |
In environments where B2B integration is enabled, when attachments are sent to external users via SharePoint integration, the external users are registered as guest accounts in Microsoft Entra ID. Also, even when external sharing is performed with SharePoint alone without using our service, external users are registered as guest accounts without the users being aware of it. This is the Microsoft specification as of March 2026.
