# Search in a Multi-Geo SharePoint tenant

In a Multi-Geo SharePoint tenant, each geo ___location has its own search index, as well as its own independent search center. When a user searches, the query is fanned out to all the indexes, and the returned results are merged.

In a Multi-Geo SharePoint tenant, each geo ___location has its own search index, as well as its own independent search center. By default, when you configure a search center, the search center uses the following URL pattern.

For example, a user in one geo ___location can search for content stored in another geo ___location, or for content on a SharePoint site that’s restricted to a different geo ___location. If the user has access to this content, search will show the result.

From an end user point of view, search is scoped to the current geo ___location. When users perform searches from a site hosted in North America, they will only see results from the North America geo ___location. Searches from a site hosted in Europe will return results from sites in the Europe geo ___location.

## Working with search programmatically in a Multi-Geo tenant

Working with search programmatically is similar to the end user search experience. If you perform a search query, you'll only get results for the geo ___location in which you run the query. Your applications can, however, perform Multi-Geo tenant searches. To do this, iterate over the geo locations in your tenant, issue the same search query in each geo ___location, and then concatenate the results.

This approach might be sufficient for in some scenarios (for example, searches for sites of a given type). However, in some cases, you want the search results to be ranked according to relevancy. You can't do this when you have multiple result sets. If your scenario requires search ranking, you will need to wait until a Multi-Geo search experience is available.
