PNP Search: include YouTube
Hi, I've successfully installed PNP search and results webparts in my sharepoint comms site, and have restricted the search to return results only from my own site, and only to return pages or certai...

So PnP Search can't know what youtube videos you have embeeded in the site using the webpart. So the the easiest way for you to return these is to have them saved into a SharePoint list and Return the results from that.

NicolasKheirallah Thanks so much for reply. Do you mean a list of URLs or uploading the MP4 files? I've tried both. Both ways returned results fine in search, but clicking on the results from the list of links returned a security error, and the MP4s took ages to load with poor playback experience (EG - weirdly - loading twice: once in the search tab and once externally).
- Jul 11, 2023The security error is probably something your organisation has setup when it comes to clicking to links.
As for poor playback experience, is it low quality or sluggish/buffering ?- S_HardingJul 11, 2023Copper ContributorSluggish, and no nice little controls (as you have in youtube) such as playback speed, and kept opening in 2 tabs for me! (Original search tab and another). Stream has been suggested as a way forward, which i will explore next. thanks again for your response.
- Jul 11, 2023Good for you to know but Streams is in SharePoint, so all video files you open in SharePoint in a lack of better way of saying it uses Streams.
It sounds like you're running a Company VPN which is mkaing the network sluggish?
