Do you simply want to give access to the folder's content to people? Do they get any errors when trying to access the files in there?

Is this happening for the rest of the team members, or do people outside of your Business team attempt to access the shared link, and they can’t?
If the latter, and you’re not the admin, have you checked with them to make sure they haven’t changed any external sharing settings via their Admin Console?
