00:00:02,643 --> 00:00:04,473
Now that we know how to configure and

2
00:00:04,473 --> 00:00:06,613
manage Search, let's take a look at

3
00:00:06,613 --> 00:00:09,316
monitoring SharePoint Search. First of

4
00:00:09,316 --> 00:00:12,831
all, Search gives us a number of reports

5
00:00:12,831 --> 00:00:15,121
that we can use in order to find out what

6
00:00:15,121 --> 00:00:17,505
people are searching for and using Search

7
00:00:17,505 --> 00:00:20,625
for. We have quite a few reports such as

8
00:00:20,625 --> 00:00:24,123
number of queries, top queries per day or

9
00:00:24,123 --> 00:00:26,615
per month, abandoned queries so searches

10
00:00:26,615 --> 00:00:29,996
that people did and they didn't click on

11
00:00:29,996 --> 00:00:34,018
any results, and searches with no results.

12
00:00:34,018 --> 00:00:36,187
All of those reports are exported to Excel

13
00:00:36,187 --> 00:00:39,538
so you can always send it to the intranet

14
00:00:39,538 --> 00:00:42,569
managers like say, to inform them if a lot

15
00:00:42,569 --> 00:00:44,445
of people are searching for let's say,

16
00:00:44,445 --> 00:00:47,093
vacation policies or for certain policies

17
00:00:47,093 --> 00:00:49,177
and they're not finding the results that

18
00:00:49,177 --> 00:00:53,248
they want. As an administrator we can also

19
00:00:53,248 --> 00:00:56,389
inspect the crawl log in SharePoint

20
00:00:56,389 --> 00:00:59,156
Online, and this is mostly used to see if

21
00:00:59,156 --> 00:01:02,251
there were any Search errors crawling

22
00:01:02,251 --> 00:01:04,283
something or to see how come something

23
00:01:04,283 --> 00:01:09,059
does not appear in the index? The cmdlet

24
00:01:09,059 --> 00:01:11,847
is Get-PnPSearchCrawlLog, and we can

25
00:01:11,847 --> 00:01:15,024
specify a few parameters to get what we

26
00:01:15,024 --> 00:01:18,057
want from filtering on the URL. Filtering

27
00:01:18,057 --> 00:01:21,214
on a content source or only getting

28
00:01:21,214 --> 00:01:24,816
errors, for example. This cmdlet is part

29
00:01:24,816 --> 00:01:27,895
of the PnP PowerShell cmdlet, and I have

30
00:01:27,895 --> 00:01:36,000
added a link to the documentation so you can also view other examples in there.
