How do I create a searchable image gallery using SharePoint? #M365AMA
In this episode, the panel discusses the following community question:
“I have been tasked with a job to create an online gallery with a search engine so if someone types in three descriptive words, it comes up with images related to that search. I know it has to do with metadata but as to how to do it, I have absolutely no idea. If anyone can help, that’d really be appreciated. Thanks.”

Some relevant notes/links shared by the team:
- Interesting from a search perspective. Content search web part may offer some help and adding metadata to the images in a library as SharePoint metadata or embedding the metadata in the image itself. This metadata can be indexed by the search engine and used as filters/query parameters (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/configure-a-content-search-web-part-in-sharepoint-0dc16de1-dbe4-462b-babb-bf8338c36c9a)
