SharePoint Search does not work

Hi all,

our SharePoint Online Search does not work anymore since minimum 1 hour. If we type a word into the search, it shows only a few results. For example, site collections, site pages and documents are completely missing. Does anyone have similar problems? 

 

Many greetings,

Manuelson

    FYI
    For those who have the same problem. Microsoft is aware of it and there are some customers who have the same problem with the SharePoint Search.

    Microsoft is now trying to investigate the issue and fix it in a timely manner.

    same problem here, getting more and more reports of this from one customer. cant reproduce it on my end though. will open a ticket in two hours, if nothing official is said until then.

    error code is always 500, which means its an issue on microsofts end

    Hi Manuelson,

    there is no global issue adressed by Microsoft about the issue with SharePoint Online search that you are having.


    You can take a look at the following link:

  • Manuelson I have seen few customers are facing SharePoint search related issues on their tenants. I have also seen some twitter posts of users facing issues with SharePoint search.

     

    Seems like the issue at Microsoft end. You can raise service ticket with Microsoft directly and raise this issue from your end. Follow: Get support for M365 - online support
