By default, search only displays items from your environment, which are apps and templates. Users can select the See web results option to expand their search to external web content. See web results .

Warning

Do not send personal data or confidential/proprietary information as part of your search when you choose this option.

To prevent users from using the See web results option to perform external web content searches for an environment, see Manage search providers.

Manage search providers

The Microsoft.PowerApps.Administration.PowerShell module includes the cmdlets that members of either the Global admins, Azure Active Directory Global admins, or Dynamics 365 admin security groups can use to modify the search providers. More information: Get started using the Power Apps admin module.

By default, all search providers are enabled. The following search providers can be disabled.

Search provider namespace Description
PowerPlatform.Search.disableDocsSearch When this provider is disabled, users in the environment will see a message that Microsoft Learn and Documentation search categories have been turned off by the administrator in the search results page.
PowerPlatform.Search.disableCommunitySearch When this provider is disabled, users in the environment will see a message that Community and Blog search categories have been turned off by the administrator in the search results page.
PowerPlatform.Search.disableBingVideoSearch When this provider is disabled, users in the environment will see a message that Video search categories have been turned off by the administrator in the search results page.

To return the current settings including which search providers are enabled or disabled, run this cmdlet: Get-TenantSettings

Disable a search provider

Members of the Power Platform admin role can disable or enable a search provider by specifying the search provider namespace when running the Set-TenantSettings cmdlet.

For example, to disable the Microsoft Learn and Documentation search provider, run this cmdlet:

$requestBody = @{PowerPlatform.Search.disableDocsSearch = $true}
Set-TenantSettings -RequestBody $requestBody

To enable the Microsoft Learn and Documentation search provider, run this cmdlet:
