    When you configure cloud hybrid search for SharePoint, follow the instructions in Configure cloud hybrid search – roadmap. The instructions include running the Windows PowerShell script CreateCloudSSA.ps1 to create and configure a cloud Search service application (cloud SSA) on a SharePoint Server Subscription Edition server. You'll also find instructions for running the PowerShell script Onboard-CloudHybridSearch-SPOONS.ps1 to connect your cloud SSA and your Office 365 tenant and set up server-to-server authentication for the two environments.

    The Windows PowerShell script CreateCloudSSA.ps1 works for all Office 365 plans. The Windows PowerShell script Onboard-CloudHybridSearch-SPOONS.ps1 works for all Office 365 plans except Office 365 US Government Defense.
