[What you need to do to prepare:]

No action is needed to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.

You can customize how Graph Connector content sources are shown in the filter experience. To customize the name and icon shown to users for a connection in content source filters:

  1. In Microsoft 365 admin center, go to Search and Intelligence > Data sources > select the connection you want to customize and then select Edit in the side panel.
  2. Set your Connection Display name and icon. Note that certain keywords are reserved and cannot be used in the Display name (such as Microsoft brands and default search vertical names).

To group together multiple connections into a single value in the filter, set the same Display name for them.
