News Web Part Filter Not Available
I think the ability to filter on news across site collections is supposed to be coming at some point. What you can do now is use the Highlighted Content web part to pull in news articles from multiple site collections and then filter on a managed property. When I need to do this, I create a managed metadata property that I use on all of the sites I want to roll up and then map each property to an available managed property in the search schema (e.g. RefinableString05). Then I can filter the news based on that shared property - but for now, only in the Highlighted Content Web Part.

Does alias name appear in high lighted content webpart or you need to use RefinableString
You need to use RefinableStringxx.
So with On-Premise I could add my custom column to the Search Schema and be able to use the property in my filters as a Managed Property. Is this no longer the case and I have to use the RefinableString fields now?
I don't think so,. Find more information here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/manage-search-schema.
this will make everything so difficult to remember, ony way is that we have to create excel.
Sad part
