With Microsoft Graph connectors (Governmental Community Cloud Pricing), your organization can index third-party data so that it appears in Microsoft Search results. This feature expands the types of content sources that are searchable in your Microsoft 365 productivity apps and the broader Microsoft ecosystem. The third-party data can be hosted on-premises or in the public or private clouds. Microsoft Graph connectors honor the source permissions as configured in your content source. As a result, users in your organization will only be able to view content to which they have access.
Microsoft Graph connectors (Governmental Community Cloud Pricing) provides all the functionality of its enterprise counterpart (Microsoft Graph connectors) but is hosted in a separate, secured environment and adds compliance features like accreditations, personnel screening, and data residency that enable the service to meet the unique needs of US Government customers. State and local government customers that require compliance-level data protection and security can also take advantage of Microsoft Graph connectors (Governmental Community Cloud Pricing).
