Hello NotebookEnjoyer
For Fabric External Data Sharing (OneLake shortcuts):
- You must specify one recipient email per share
- That email must correspond to a Fabric‑capable identity
- There is no support for multiple emails per share
- No security groups
- No aliases
This is a known limitation today. External data shares are user‑bound, not group‑bound.
Workaround: Entra B2B guest + Fabric permissions
- Invite users via Entra B2B
- Add them to an Entra security group
- Grant Fabric workspace / Lakehouse access to the group
Change the Fabric tenant settings -
- Allow external guest users to access Fabric
- Allow sharing with external users
