LeadShare

You can only create, edit, and delete sharing entries for standard objects whose RowCause field is set to Manual. Sharing entries for standard objects with different RowCause values are created as a result of your Salesforce org’s sharing configuration and are read-only. For some sharing mechanisms, such as sharing sets, sharing entries aren’t stored at all.

While Salesforce currently maintains read-only sharing entries for multiple sharing mechanisms, it’s possible that we’ll stop storing certain share records to improve performance. As a best practice, don’t create customizations that rely on the availability of these sharing entries. Any changes to sharing behavior will be communicated before they occur.
