During the first night we turned on Dataverse Search in the environment and wired it straight into our Power Pages experience. Instead of hiding search away on a default page, we built a custom search entry point right in the UI, a proper “Search CCCP Portal” field that feels like part of the site, not a bolt-on feature. By refactoring and implementing a clean-looking modal with search entry, the user gets a modern search experience.

Now you can type something like “wheat” and instantly jump to a results page that scans across the portal and surfaces the relevant pages and content. It’s already useful for finding resources, dashboards, and anything mentioning current stock or production status, AND it sets us up nicely for the next step: narrowing results into actual resource cards and order-related data as we keep hooking more of the Minecraft facility into Dataverse.

Crawler badge? We’re taking it. Search that solves a real problem: finding what you need in the portal, fast.
