Graph Connectors Experience and Copilot

Documents which are surfaced in Microsoft Search show up in the search experiences in office.com, Bing for Business and in SharePoint Online. Moreover, Graph Connected results also are surfaced for answer generation within the Microsoft Copilot.

More details on configuring Microsoft Search for indexing documents can be found at Microsoft Search - Indexing Configuration . Please also consider the configuration recommendations at Microsoft’s knowledge bases.

On the other hand, the RheinInsights Retrieval Suite can query Microsoft Search and display the search results. A detailed explanation on configuring Microsoft Search for query-side purposes is given at Microsoft Search - Query Configuration .

Indexing Latency

Please note the following considerations for Microsoft Search with Graph Connectors

  1. When groups change, it can take up to 8 hours until Microsoft Search reflects the updates in the security permissions. In particular, this means that after the initial crawl it takes this long until search results show up.

  2. Microsoft Search does not accept more than 5 documents per second for indexing.
