Title not appearing in PnP Search for newly uploaded files

Question

Starting today, newly uploaded files in my SharePoint document library are no longer displaying their Title in PnP Search results. Instead, only the file icon is shown. Files that were uploaded before today continue to display their titles correctly, and all other metadata appears to be working as expected. Earlier today, I removed some columns from the library settings, but I did not make any changes to the Title column. What could cause newly uploaded files to stop displaying their Title in PnP Search, and how can I restore the Title display for these files?

Hi Turner Abigail

I understand how confusing this can be, especially since the issue only affects newly uploaded files.

In the meantime, you might consider trying the following:

-Check the Title field for one of the newly uploaded files under Details or Edit properties to confirm that it contains a value.

-Check the Title property in the PnP Search Results web part to make sure it is still configured to be displayed in the search results.

If the Title is populated and the configuration is correct but the issue continues for newly uploaded files, I recommend raising a support request with Microsoft Support, as they can investigate the SharePoint Search indexing behavior for the affected library.

For further instructions, you can follow this guide: Get support - Microsoft 365 admin | Microsoft Learn 

Thank you for your understanding.
