This issue points to a problem in the data-plane of the library.
Search
Milestone
Currently to create a
SearchIndexer
you must first create aDataSource
that desribes a connection to some external data source to be indexed (e.g. data in Azure blob storage). Nearly every UX study participant was confused by this, and thought e.g. that theDataSource
object was somehow the external data source (rather than a description of if) or that blob storage clients could be passed directly to the search indexer.Has been suggested a different name could help make the purpose of this model more evident.

DataSourceDescription
For further work, perhaps it would make sense to see if e.g. a blob storage client could just be accepted directly (this was asked for by at least one participant)
cc @xiangyan99 @heaths and this will probably need to be taken up with the team and @brjohnstmsft
