A prerequisite for crawling SharePoint Online is to have a user account. The user login name and password for this account will be required below in case you want to use this method.
The recommended name for this account is "aspire_crawl_account". See prerequisites Prerequisites section for more details.
Step 1. Set
"aspire_crawl_account" will need to have sufficient access rights to read all of the documents in SharePoint Online that you wish to process. See User Account Requirements for details on what rights will be required for the account in SharePoint.
To set the rights for your account at Web Application level, do the following:
Step 2
If setting the crawl account as Site Administrator is not possible, check SharePoint Online - Crawl Account Custom Permissions guide.
Another option is to set up a Azure AD Application, so it uses a certificate to get an access token and then use the SharePoint Online Rest API. To set this up see Azure AD Access for SharePoint Online.
.Click on the crawl type option to set it as " (is set as "Incremental" by default and the first time it'll work like a full crawl. After the first crawl, set it to "Incremental" to crawl for any changes done in the repository).Click on the Start button.
The status will show RUNNING while the crawl is going, and CRAWLEDCompleted when it is finished.
If there are errors, you will get a clickable "Error" flag that will take you to a detailed error message page.
