    Thanks a lot,

    This is exactly what I was looking for. I still have to get started with the tool to be able to configure the search in a very specific list.

     

    thanks again

Given my skills and my bad English, could you provide me more details on how to configure pnp search to fix the search in a specific library or list and not in the whole site?

Hello EiC4733 

 

add a new search page with a Search Results Web Part: https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/scenarios/create-simple-search-page/

 

When you edit the Results Web Part, you can configure the query unter Query Template (page 1 in Web Part configuration). Your Query looks like this:

{searchTerms} path:https://<TENANT>.sharepoint.com/sites/DocumentStore/TechContent/ IsContainer<>true

 

path: is the direct path to your library

IsContainer<> exclude folders, when you don't have folders, you can delete the parameter IsCointainer<>true

 

On page 3 in your Result Web Part, you can connect to an Search Box, when you use both.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Regards, Dave
