Sharing a collection with an external organisation that uses bitwarden already

[cksapp (Kent)]

Hello @bsummit and welcome to the community,

You can find my recent answer to a similar question in a user’s community post here.

Share Across Organizations?

Hey @chrimorg This is correct, currently you would need to add users to whichever Organization where shared items are stored for access. There was an older (now archived) post which discussed the “External/Guest User Sharing” features similar to LastPass or 1Password Though you could vote for the feature request here which is similarly asking for the same thing. As discussed in that request currently you can use the Bitwarden Send feature to provide information securely to those contactors, …

In short, it is not currently easily possibly without having all users as part of the same Bitwarden Organization, though as noted there is a current feature request on the topic you may go vote for and voice your opinion.

Hope this helps
