It could be great if you update the post with a meeting invite :-). I have also a question in regards of the requirements for Microsoft Search:

To enable Microsoft Search in Bing for your organization, the Office 365 tenant and the Global Administrator should be in one of these locations:

• United States

• Canada

• Australia

• India

• United Kingdom

• France

• German

When can we expect to have the ability to enable Microsoft  Search in Europe?

@Juan Carlos González Martín

This is a Skype meeting and best experienced by joining from a computer. The Join Skype Meeting  Link and phone numbers are at the bottom of the original post. 

Regarding availability for other countries/regions, we are working towards expanding to other countries, but don't have a definite timeline at this time. Please refer to the Requirements for Microsoft Search in Bing which will have the latest information.

@Raj Kolagotla I'm not sure I understand your comment around the fact that it's a Skype meeting. It should still be possible to add a calendar invite to the post for people to add to their calendars, or?

That's usually very helpful since we don't have to create the calendar event ourselves and risk getting the time or other details wrong.

[Raj Kolagotla]

@Thomas Bak Thanks for the feedback and noted about calendar meeting invite. Will include that in future webcasts.

@Per Birk Olsen

We are working on summarizing the webcast and will post the information on this thread.

It would be great to know if there is any intention to provide extensibility for other data providers in the enterprise like Dynamics or 3rd party sources?

[Rodolfo Oses]

@Ryan Becker

Can you pls provide the recording link?

@Mike Walker

The People data should have indexed over the weekend. Please check and if still an issue, Private Message me your Office 365 Tenant ID (Please don't post this information on the forums). 

[Mike Walker]

That worked great thanks

[Mike Walker]

Only issue is if I click organisation drop down on a people result on a mobile edge device will collapse back and not show any organisation data.

@Mike Walker

Just tested this on the below and Org Chart was visible as expected.

Can you please test it again after clearing the cache and give details of the hardware/software ? Also check if other tabs like Files, groups etc are staying open.
