I use OneDrive for Business (through my university).
My adviser shared a folder with me. I subsequently received an e-mail which said in the subject line "[my advisor's name] shared the folder "[folder name]" with you". In the body of the e-mail, it provides a link to the folder which is marked as "This link will work for anyone".
