+# Overview of version history limits for document libraries and OneDrive
Version history limits control how versions are stored in a SharePoint document library or OneDrive account. Limits can be set at organization, site, library or OneDrive user account level allowing admins and site owners the ability to better manage content recovery and auditing requirements. Global and SharePoint admins in Microsoft 365 can set version history limits at the organization level. These settings apply universally to all new libraries, whether on existing or new SharePoint sites, and on default libraries on new OneDrive sites. Site owners can overwrite organization-level version settings by [configuring version settings for sites](site-version-limits.md) they own. Site owners can overwrite organization or site settings by [configuring version settings for libraries and lists](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/enable-and-configure-versioning-for-a-list-or-library-1555d642-23ee-446a-990a-bcab618c7a37) they own.

-Public preview is turned off by default. To enable Public preview, admins can run the following SharePoint Online Management PowerShell cmdlet:

-> [!NOTE]
-> 1. Ensure that you have the latest [SharePoint Online Management Shell](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35588).
-> 2. If you receive the error 'The requested operation is a part of an experimental feature that is not supported in the current environment.', this indicates that the feature has not yet reached your tenant. You can try again later.

The default version history limits for new document libraries are set by either the organization-level limits or the site-level limits. If the site has its own version history limit, it means the site breaks inheritance from the organization. However, to meet specific content requirements, site admins can decide to [configure versioning for a library](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/enable-and-configure-versioning-for-a-list-or-library-1555d642-23ee-446a-990a-bcab618c7a37).

SharePoint Shareable Links Anyone Specific People Organization https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/OfficeDocs-SharePoint/commits/public/SharePoint/SharePointOnline/shareable-links-anyone-specific-people-organization.md
When users share files and folders in Microsoft 365, a shareable link is created
Like an *anyone* link, a *people in my organization* link is a transferrable, revocable secret key. Unlike an *anyone* link, these links only work for people inside your Microsoft 365 organization. When somebody opens a *people in my organization* link, they need to be authenticated as a member in your directory. If they're not currently signed-in, they're prompted to sign in.
- Creating a *People in your organization* link doesn't make the associated file or folder appear in search results, be accessible via Copilot, or grant access to everyone within the organization. Simply creating this link doesn't provide organizational-wide access to the content. For individuals to access the file or folder, they must possess the link and it needs to be activated through redemption. A user can redeem the link by clicking on it, or in some instances, the link can be automatically redeemed when sent to someone via email, chat, or other communication methods. The link doesn't work for guests or other people outside your organization.

Simply creating this link doesn't provide organizational-wide access to the content. For individuals to access the file or folder, they must possess the link and it needs to be activated through redemption. A user can redeem the link by selecting it. Also, if the link is sent from the SharePoint or OneDrive Web UI, or as email in Outlook or chat message in Teams, it will be automatically redeemed for individual recipients, up to a limit of 100. This feature is not supported for group recipients, or for messages posted in Teams channels. The link doesn't work for guests or other people outside your organization.

By default, organization level settings define the version history limits that are applied to all new document libraries created in a site. However, to meet specific content needs, admins can choose to set distinct version history limits on individual sites. This way, users can break the inheritance from organization limits on an individual site.
