Creating a Trusted Share Directly from a Document
Overview
The M365 eShare application is designed to simplify how users create and manage Trusted Shares directly from a SharePoint site. One of the many ways to create a trusted share is to navigate directly to the document’s location in SharePoint and create the share from there.
Prerequisites
You can only share documents stored within this SharePoint site using the eShare feature.
Your SharePoint site must be enabled for sharing by your organization administrator.
You must have Edit access to the site.
To share files from other locations, please use email or the Cloud Portal . For more information, click here
To create a new share, locate the document/folder you wish to share. Click the three-dot menu next to the document name

2. Select External Share
It opens a dropdown menu, then click on ' External share ' to initiate the sharing process.

4. Input recipient address
After selecting the file or folder, you’ll see a similar menu like this:
Name the Share: Use the default name(s) or enter a custom one.
Add Recipients: Enter email addresses; auto-complete helps find users.
Message (Optional): Include a short note for the notification email.
Sharing Policy: Choose how recipients can interact with the share. If unsure, keep the default policy.
After inputting the required fields, click on Share

5. Trusted Share created
Once the document has been successfully shared, a confirmation screen will appear. Click 'Open Share' to view the shared document or manage the sharing settings. Get Shareable Link – Generates a link for the Trusted Share. You can share this link with recipients to allow direct access to the share.
