Mapping Crawled to Managed prop

[EuGig]

Hi everyone,

As far as I can tell, there is currently no command that maps a crawled property to a managed property. In other words, there does not seem to be an equivalent command such as New-MappingManagedToCrawled.

Is there a specific reason why this functionality is not available? Are there any limitations or design considerations that prevent creating a mapping from a crawled property to a managed property programmatically?

I’d appreciate any insights or clarification on the recommended approach for handling this scenario.

yeah, I ran into this. Unfortunately there's no direct cmdlet for it. The way you'd do it in PnP PowerShell is through the search configuration XML export/import cycle instead.

Use this:
Get-PnPSearchConfiguration -Scope Site
-Path ".\searchconfig.xml"

Set-PnPSearchConfiguration -Scope Site
-Path ".\searchconfig.xml"

if you want the mapping tenant wide use -Scope Subscription instead of Site.

also request a reindex of the affected list after importing the updated config.
