Can someone confirm they get similar outcomes to what I describe here?
I'm working with an agency in a large multi-tenant organisation. When end-users search from a SPO site with'Search this site', the search URL contains /siteall?q=queryword and the search returns from other sites in the tenancy that the user appears to have access to. This is confusing when they only searched 'this site'.
I understand this to mean that the SearchScope is set to '1' (Tenant). Is this now the default setting for all sites (is 0, the default behaviour, actually '1'?)
Clicking on 'Organisation' doesn't change the search results (still includes other sites in the tenancy) but the search URL no longer has the /siteall element.
Am I right in saying the only way to fix this (to restrict search results to just that site) is to run the PnP script and change the SearchScope to '3'?
Thanks in advance.
