vkartikWe're having the same problem.  This is happening on all of our SharePoint sites.  Documents do not become searchable for several days.  Reindixing the sites and libraries manually does nothing.  We currently have an outstanding ticket with Microsoft but they seem to have no clue.

    We have the exact same issue 18 months later. Same problem on multiple sites on multiple tenants. Search by ContentType or ContentTypeId on some sites never works even after weeks of reindexing the library and the site. Additionally search rollup across associated hubs is also totally unreliable.

    Also have MS support tickets open and even after hours of collecting logs and reporting findings they have no clue whatsoever.

    SharePoint these days is utter garbage. I swear I'm never touching it again.
