Searching in a site
Hi Paul de Jong,
The document libraries are created by a PowerShell script. Then there are some template files that are created during the automation together with some folders.
From what we can see, it is the files that are mass-uploaded that there is a non coincidence in what is searchable.
It is various type of files. PDF, NC1, DXF,DWG, ZIP
Most files are around 0-1000 KB in size.

About the file formats "PDF, NC1, DXF,DWG, ZIP". This requires further analysis.
I expect that Microsoft Search will only index the filenames for the nc1, dxf and dwg files. The contents will not be searchable. Can you test this?
The files within the zip files should be indexed (if the zip file does not use encryption). However, the indexer cannot index certain file formats such as dwg.
PDF: these files should be indexed. Do the pdf files use encryption or only contain an image? The latter may happen when a document is scanned to pdf format and there is no OCR step involved.
I would test the configuration of the libraries itself by adding a simple Office file. The indexing should not take more than a few minutes.

You are right, so when i add a simple word,excel or pp file it is no problem. But the names of the other files are not indexed 😞
