I have a question about Microsoft Search analytics/insights I'd be interested in hearing an answer for. We have 80,000+ users, have promoted a Home site as our Enterprise search portal and set it in Viva Connections for Teams. We have incorporated external data sources, migrated our SharePoint promoted results to bookmarks and even set the Home site results page to use the SharePoint start page search results page. Our users are very active in individual SharePoint sites, OneDrive and MS Teams searching from wherever they happen to work the most. Bing search is not enabled for our organization, users don't utilize the office.com or SharePoint start for searching however those are the only locations included in the new Microsoft Search Insights. So pun intended, we have little insight into what users are really searching for or how we can best improve their experience. The old SharePoint admin level search usage reports no longer work and it's inconceivable to check 60,000 + individual modern site usage reports. Will feedback and search usage initiated from other areas of the tenant be included in MS Search insights anytime soon?
- Short answer is "yes". We are actively expanding analytics and insight support and have many long-term and short-term goals. We expect to release feature updates by the end of the year. Customers involved with Microsoft's Lighthouse Program for Microsoft Search will get early access to analytics and insight features.
- I have the same question. The Search usage analytics in the MS Admin center is only marginally useful. I would have expected it to roll up all usage from across the tenant. I'd also love to see hub sites have their own rollup reporting.
- Perhaps using Graph for custom exports to Power Bi or similar could be an option? , just my 5 € cents

We do not have a precise ETA at the moment, but we are currently working on including team site and hub site searches into all up numbers in analytics dashboard.
