Exclude Site from Tenant Level/Global SharePoint Search

[Ajay Mandal]

Hi All,

looking for some feedback from the community. Is there a way to exclude a site collection from tenant Level (Global search) search, but still retail the local site collection/site level search?

thank you for your feedback!

Hello @Ajay Mandal

you can hide a site from the search index in the site settings:

Hi David,
Thank you for your feedback. Quick Question: just to clarify, the change you are proposing above, will prevent the particular site and all it's contents from appearing in the Global/Tenant level SharePoint search, however the local (Site level) search will still work. Can you please clarify.

Hello @Ajay Mandal

when you active this option, the site and all it's content well not appearing in any search, not in Global/Tenant search, and also not in site level search.

You cannot exclude a site from the index and still search for it. then you would have to work with authorizations.

Best, Dave
