The message "this information can only be shared within your organisation's Google Workspace apps" typically means that sharing of that particular file or information is restricted to users inside the organization's Google Workspace domain only. This is a setting controlled by the domain administrator to prevent external sharing, thereby protecting sensitive or confidential data from being accessed outside the trusted organizational environment. Google Workspace administrators have the ability to control external sharing via the Admin console under Apps > Google Workspace > Drive and Docs > Sharing settings. They can turn external sharing on or off, allow sharing only with trusted domains, or restrict sharing to users within the organization. When external sharing is disabled or limited, users cannot share files, invitations, or document links with people outside the organization's Google Workspace domain. This setting applies to files created in Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, Drive items, and attachments sent in email if those originate from within the domain. There are also options for "visitor sharing" allowing external users limited access with verification, but general external sharing without sign-in can be disabled. In summary, this message indicates an enforced policy restricting sharing outside the organization, protecting the organization's data from external access or leaks.
