Folder "Share with" option in Skydrive of SharePoint 2013 Mysite

Introduction

In SharePoint 2013, We are having the One drive / Sky drive option in My site. Its basically works like document library. We can keep our document in it and integrated with our local machine too. We have all the features of Document Library in One / Sky drive. But SharePoint given some limitation for sharing document and folder. Let us see about it.

Sharing Folder

We don't have any limitation to share document items. But we are having limitation to share folder. For example, If you share the folder to someone. It will throw Access denied message while he/she accessing the folder. 

Here is the solution to resolve this. Follow the below steps before share the folder. If it is already done, don't worry about it.

  • Click the Sky drive at top ribbon
  • Click Site Settings --> Site Collection Features
  • Activate "Limited access user permission lockdown mode"


Shared user can able to access the folder once we activated the feature.
