This issue occurs if the default setting for file sharing is **People currently in this chat**. In this case, the [Specific people](/sharepoint/turn-external-sharing-on-or-off#file-and-folder-links) link is used. However, *Specific people* links aren't recommended when you want to share files with more than 50 people.

This issue occurs if the default setting for file sharing is **People currently in this chat**. In this scenario, the type of link that's used for the shared files is [Specific people](/sharepoint/turn-external-sharing-on-or-off#how-do-i-manage-file-and-folder-links). However, we don't recommend using this link when you want to share files with more than 100 users. When there are more than 100 participants in a chat, some participants might need to request permission to access the shared files.
