Creating Search Index from Multiple indexes within same search service

Question

I have to create a Auto Suggestions for a chatbot with suggestions coming from QnA Maker KB. There are 5 different knowledge base and a respective index created for the same in Azure Search service. I am able to query and get suggestions from each index or a testkb index. But is there a feature available which can search through all the indexes within the same search service and return me the appropriate result.

Thanks.

What are you using to generate the suggestions? – billoverton Apr 29 '20 at 12:59 — billoverton, Apr 29 '20 at 12:59

Currently, we do not have any feature that allows you to search through all the indexes within the same search service. However, you can try out a few options:

You can use Dispatch as a routing service, to distribute requests to different KBs in the backend, without the need to implement a custom routing solution.
Or you could use a higher level QnA Maker to ask a question with multiple follow-up questions and have the user select one of the follow-up question options and then send that selected option to the bot to route manually to the correct KB.

Hope this helps.
