Crawling User Profiles
About this task
The OneDrive for Business connector supports crawling OneDrive for Business User Profiles. Enabling this feature requires configuring your search collection seed and a basic understanding of OneDrive user profiles.
OneDrive user profiles are typically made up of components such as basic biographical information, membership lists, skills, departments, phone numbers, images, colleagues, and quick links. The OneDrive for Business connector will also preserve original security settings associated with content. Each component is assigned one of several security settings:
- Everyone - All users have access to content that is associated with this permission level. This type of content is publicly accessible and will then be included in subsequent crawls.
- My Manager - Only a user's manager can access content assigned this security level.
- My Team - Content is available to all other users that make up the user's immediate team.
- My Colleague - other users designated as only colleagues can view such content.
To enable crawling OneDrive For Business User Profiles, navigate to the Crawling Configuration page of your search collection in the Watson™ Explorer Engine administration tool and do the following:
