problem with pnp search always dispaying the same results
Hello, I am using PnP Modern Search web parts on sharepoint online and each time i try to search it seems that i got always the same results (and the same result count) whatever my search words is. ...
captainclito Here is the solution. As i used the microsoft search box i had to connect the search result web part to it; i didn't do it that's why it didn't work. https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/usage/search-results/connections/

Hello captainclito
have you tested it on a page with the PnP Search Box? Same counts of results? With Microsoft Search Data Source you have APi entity types to use: https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/usage/search-results/data-sources/
