> B2B direct connect is possible only when both organizations allow access to and from the other organization. For example, Contoso can allow inbound B2B direct connect from Fabrikam, but sharing isn't possible until Fabrikam also enables outbound B2B direct connect with Contoso. Therefore, you’ll need to coordinate with the external organization’s admin to make sure their cross-tenant access settings allow sharing with you. This mutual agreement is important because B2B direct connect enables limited sharing of data for the users you enable for B2B direct connect.

### Default settings

The default cross-tenant access settings apply to all external Azure AD organizations, except organizations for which you've configured individual settings. Initially, Azure AD blocks all inbound and outbound B2B direct connect capabilities by default for all external Azure AD tenants. You can change these default settings, but typically you'll leave them as-is and enable B2B direct connect access with individual organizations.

Currently, B2B direct connect enables the Teams Connect shared channels feature. B2B direct connect users can access an external organization's Teams shared channel without having to switch tenants or sign in with a different account. The B2B direct connect user’s access is determined by the shared channel’s policies.

In the resource organization, the Teams shared channel owner can search within Teams for users from an external organization and add them to the shared channel. After they're added, the B2B direct connect users can access the shared channel from within their home instance of Teams, where they collaborate using features such as chat, calls, file-sharing, and app-sharing. For details, see [Overview of teams and channels in Microsoft Teams](/microsoftteams/teams-channels-overview). For details about the resources, files, and applications, that are available to the B2B direct connect user via the Teams shared channel, refer to [Chat, teams, channels, & apps in Microsoft Teams](/microsoftteams/deploy-chat-teams-channels-microsoft-teams-landing-page).

B2B collaboration and B2B direct connect are two different approaches to sharing with users outside of your organization.

Here, we'll discuss some key differences in how users are managed and how they access resources.
