Search - Hybrid
Hi
Scenario: About to launch a new intranet based on SPO - but business demands that when doing a search in Office 365/SPO it also shows a results set from the SharePoint 2013 'On-Prem' Farm.
The On-Prem farm are going to be 'fased out' shortly after launch - so no need to configure a results set "on-prem", that shows content from SPO
Are there any guides / how-to that describes what is needed to configure in SPO and in SP 'On_Prem' ?
- Everything you need to know should be available at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/hybrid/learn-about-cloud-hybrid-search-for-sharepoint. After review that and the See Also documentation, let us know what specific questions you have on implementation.

- You must use a CSSA, that's correct. You can create it through Manage Service Applications in Central Admin; there is a checkbox when creating a Search Service Application to make it a CSSA, but PowerShell is the recommended method.
You should not create a CSSA in any environment that you do not want results in SharePoint Online; this will likely include dev and/or test environments. I use standard SSAs in dev while using a CSSA in prod.
