Search only returns results for site admins?
We have a SharePoint Online site that is exhibiting a very odd search behavior. If a user clicks on a document library and then performs a search they get "Nothing here matches your search." Howeve...
I have this exact same problem: o365 group members are unable to return search results within a new site collection. As soon as I added each user by name to the same SP Group, these users are now able to search and return results. took almost 45mins for o365 to sync this change.
Hope this helps anyone else with this problem.
tl;dr - add users by name to SP group if they have a search problem. wait for o365 to sync changes

We have this exact problem as well, anno 2023. Thankfully, this fix works for us as well. But I have no idea why there should be this problem with SharePoint reading memberships of O365 groups, and specifically in search.
So I'm curious if anyone has insight into why this problem continues to occur, when O365 groups are touted as the way to simplify the organization of rights in O365
