Help wanted: validate a React faceted search SPFx sample in SharePoint Online

A new read-only React faceted search sample for SharePoint Online is now available in the PnP SharePoint Framework webparts repository. The sample can be found at the following links: Pull request (https://github.com/pnp/sp-dev-fx-webparts/pull/6480) and Sample (https://github.com/pnp/sp-dev-fx-webparts/tree/main/samples/react-faceted-search).

The web part utilizes SharePoint Search REST (/_api/search/query) to perform searches on the current site. It supports various features such as search terms, file type and content class refiners, result counts and metadata, safe encoded query and refiner values, different loading, empty, access-denied, throttling, error, and retry states, responsive and accessible Fluent UI rendering.

The implementation is intentionally read-only and does not rely on a custom backend or Microsoft Graph. Local verification has been completed, with 4 out of 4 Jest tests passing, TypeScript and webpack build passing, ESLint passing, production .sppkg packaging successful, and the Gallery metadata validator being corrected and rerun.

However, tenant validation is still required. To help validate the sample, if you have access to a SharePoint Online tenant, please test the following aspects:

1. Search indexing

2. Result links

3. Refiners

4. Permissions

5. Empty/error states

6. Narrow web-part widths

Real screenshots and negative findings are encouraged, as local screenshot is not being presented as tenant evidence. Please share your feedback on the pull request located at: https://github.com/pnp/sp-dev-fx-webparts/pull/6480.
