Cannot reliably search Videos in Stream Search.
I've only come back to this thread because I had a notification that there was a reply in the hope that I would get an update. No far, nothing. I wonder what people who purchased the Stream licenses are experiencing?
Actually, just went back and tried the search in hope, apologies I gave up long ago. BUT IT ACTUALLY WORKS!
As David points out, try searching for partial words. That's the core problem that I and others are having, you have to know the exact word to search for and it's very picky about syntax. If you need to find "roberto" but you only type "robert", no luck.
when is the full text search coming?

Thanks everyone for their patience and hanging with us on Stream.
Here is an update on where we are at right now with respect to search.
We've been making iterative small fixes to the existing search capabilities in Stream over the last many months. As you noted above we now do a slightly better job on finding things by title and full word searches. We believe these fixes are helping improve the search experience from what we've been able to test and see in our own use of it.
In parallel to that we have a team of folks investigating how we do a big leap forward on the search experience and results. They are investigating how we can hook Stream into another search index/system that powers enterprise search on a bunch of apps in O365 (SP, bing for work, outlook, etc). This is a fairly big project across teams, and as such as been slow going. But we are still working on it and have developers actively investigating, doing proof of concepts, and narrowing down to a solution we can build out.
ArchanaN is the PM on our team who owns the search area for Stream and can answer further questions going forward.
My Stream-Search can't found pieces of words… When i search for "client" or "client*", i become no results. Only for searching the exact term "clientprojects" results were found.
