Now in public preview: Scoped Search for Viva Connections in Teams
Hi Jan_Steberl This is a great feature but it's not working within the New Microsoft Teams for us. If I search within the Viva Connections app in Teams - renamed "Compass" in our environment - there is no option to scope the search results - see attached image. Do you know if this feature will be in the new Microsoft Teams or if there's something we need to do to enable it? Thanks!
philmaynard_wap - Did you receive any update on this? I am also having the similar issue with new Teams, waiting for a release statement from Microsoft for the past two months.
And all our end users are in danger of using Viva connection because from starting March 2024, old teams will be discontinued by Microsoft.
@Jan_Steberl - do you have any update on scoped search for Viva connection within new Teams app?
Hi Kaushik-Debsharma We've just got the update within the new Teams client so can users can now perform a scoped search from within the Viva Connections app - renamed 'Compass' on our Tenant. https://admin.microsoft.com/Adminportal/?ref=MessageCenter/:/messages/MC716386
Hi philmaynard_wap , thanks for the update.
Yes, i can see the scoped search option is available once i am on the Viva Connection app.
But is it possible to rename the search place holder from "Search Viva connection" to "Search in QUAD(that's the app name)"?
Because, end user may not know what is Viva connections - they call it with its app name.- Kerem Yuceturk

Kaushik-Debsharma, thank you for sharing your screenshot. We are looking into this. Hope to find out what the issue may be and address it in a future update.
- Kerem YuceturkThank you for sharing Phil Maynard!
This should be generally available now for all tenants, and it is scheduled to become available for US government clouds in the coming month.

We are working on getting this into New Teams over the month of March. Please stay tuned for a Message Center post on this soon.- Kerem YuceturkThis has started to roll out into the Preview/Targeted Release for New Teams this week. Next week should complete that roll out and we hope to get to general availability starting mid-March!
