Creating a PowerApp to Embedd on SharPonit Page for MSFT Search

I thought there was a way to show Microsoft Search on a SharePoint page through an embedded Power App. 

I am having trouble finding documentation on how to do this. 

Has anyone done this yet? 

Can someone point me to info on this?

    Hey Eric,

    Apologies for the very late response. Can you clarify what you'd like to do a bit more for me? I want to understand the exact ask.

      During the end of the private preview and at Ignite (from what I was told) there was a way to embed MSFT Search on a SharePoint page and it was done using Power Apps.

      Plans may have changed, but that was my understanding of how to leverage MSFT Search from within the O365 SharePoint environment.

        Hi Eric, Apologies for the delay in response. I reached out to the team that owns this and, unfortunately there is no programmatic way to for someone to embed MSB results in SharePoint. However, we did announce this via Message Center on the 28th which I think will solve your problem:

        "Microsoft Search is a new enterprise search experience that increases productivity and saves time by delivering more relevant search results. As part of this rollout we'll bring Microsoft Search to SharePoint, Office.com, and Bing.com with a unified search experience for People, Bookmarks, Groups, Locations and more. Search will also become more prominent across Microsoft 365 experiences with the search box moving to a consistent location at the top of Office apps like Word, PowerPoint and Excel as well as productivity apps such as OneDrive and Outlook. We'll be gradually rolling this out to Targeted Release organizations in late April, and the roll out will be completed worldwide by the end of May 2019."
