SYNOPSIS

Required Permissions

Removes a Microsoft Search result type from the currently connected site or at the organization level.

SYNTAX

Remove-PnPSearchResultType -Identity <String> [-Scope <SearchVerticalScope>] [-Force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [-Verbose] [-Connection <PnPConnection>]

DESCRIPTION

This cmdlet removes a Microsoft Search result type from the site you are currently connected to, or at the organization (tenant) level when using -Scope Organization. It uses the Graph Connector Service (GCS) API at gcs.office.com.

Warning

This cmdlet uses the Graph Connector Service (GCS) API, which is an internal Microsoft API that is not publicly documented or officially supported. It may change without notice.

Prerequisites

Your Entra app registration must have the ExternalConnection.ReadWrite.All delegated permission from the Graph Connector Service (GCS) API. To add this permission using Azure CLI:

az ad app permission add --id <your-app-id> --api 56c1da01-2129-48f7-9355-af6d59d42766 --api-permissions d44774bd-e26c-43b1-996d-51bb90a9078e=Scope
az ad app permission admin-consent --id <your-app-id>
Note

This cmdlet requires a delegated (interactive) connection. App-only (certificate-based) connections are not supported by the GCS API and will result in a 403 Forbidden error.
