Troubleshoot a Search Center

Common fixes when a search center is empty, private, or not showing up.

The Page Says It Isn't Publicly Available

The hosted page only renders when Publish a public page is on and authentication is None. If you've made the center private, that message is expected — embed it on your own site with an access token instead.

Search Returns Nothing Useful

Answer quality mirrors the dataset. Confirm the connected dataset has real, indexed content, and refresh it after you change your source.

The Embed Doesn't Appear

  • Make sure the host page includes a <div id="seekdown-assistant-root"></div> container.
  • For a private search center, check the access token and that your domain is listed under

Allowed origins.

I Need to Change the Dataset

The dataset is chosen when you create a search center and isn't editable afterwards from its settings. To search different content, point the dataset's capture jobs at the new source, or create a new search center on the right dataset.
