Hi all,
Question on how the External Content Connector (XCC) for SharePoint actually stores crawled data:
Once XCC crawls and indexes a document, is only the metadata (title, URL, permissions, etc.) stored in the index, or is the actual document content also indexed?
If it's only metadata — do I need to make a separate API call to SharePoint using that metadata to retrieve the actual document content?
If content is indexed, how can I confirm/verify this, and can that indexed content be pulled and used directly within a Now Assist Virtual Agent (NAVA) conversation or an AI agent — or is XCC's indexed data only usable through the standard AI Search experience?
End goal: I want to use this feature so that NAVA / a custom AI agent can read and use SharePoint document content directly, not just surface it as a search result link.
Any insight from folks who've dug into this at the connector/indexing level would help a lot.
Thanks,
JK
