Hybrid Search Time Period

I"m setting up hybrid search with SP2016 for the first time. I have crawled a file share, but the content does not show up in SPO search results. Is there a delay due to timer jobs that we should expect?

    You setup Hybrid federated search or Cloud hybrid search?

     

    If you are using Cloud hybrid search, your index is kept on Office 365 so results should be pretty immediate. Do you see any other on-premises search results?

     

    Try creating a result source with that limits the results to on-prem content only using the IsExternalContent property and check out if you see any results. After your on-premises content is crawled, that managed property is set to true for all on-premises content.

      I created a Cloud SSA using the power shell scripts provided by Microsoft. When I did a search using the IsExternalContent I get results that include sp2016 site titles but none of the actual docs from Sp16 site or file share content source

        and content sources are setup properly on SP2016 side for that particular file share?
