A search source defines a subset of indexed content that users can search using a search profile. Create search sources by applying filter conditions to content from indexed sources.

Search administrators link search sources to search profiles, enabling precise control of the content that users can search. For details on creating search sources, see [Search sources in AI Search](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/rRLONKzjnEhenBae4lDmeg "Define search sources to make your searchable content available in search experiences. Choose an indexed source and configure optional filter conditions to limit the content that users can search.").
