Guide to common use cases and best-practice tips for using the Section Search web part

What are typical use cases for Section Search?

The Section Search app makes it easy for users to find exactly what they need within structured or content-heavy pages. By enabling targeted section-level search, it reduces scrolling, improves navigation, and helps people get answers faster. You might use it for:

  • Enhancing FAQ or help center pages.
  • Improving content discoverability on knowledge base or policy library pages.
  • Enabling quick access to content within long or sectioned articles.
  • Supporting intranet sites where visitors frequently search structured information.

Whenever your pages contain detailed, layered, or lengthy content, the Section Search app helps users jump straight to the information that matters.
