I am experience exactly the same problem. Uploading files to SharePoint Online with REST API the files are not searchable. It is shown in the list but if I search for the filename it does not find it.
If I upload the file again it is searchable after a couple of minutes.
Seems that the background index does not recognize that the file is uploaded the first time.Anyone experienced the same issue and has solved it?
