Microsoft is working on an auto-suggest enhancement for Search in Microsoft Teams. The new feature will automatically suggest relevant results using recent user queries.

The feature will take into account chats, files, people and data shared within Teams when it displays results. 'Top Hits' is still in development but is expected to roll out by the end of September.

Interestingly the feature was scheduled for release in August 2021 but was cancelled before being put into development again. The initial rollout was to be limited to the web version of Teams but has since been expanded in scope to include the Desktop app and support for Mac.

Once implemented, it should be similar to universal search in Windows which automatically suggests relevant applications and files based on recent queries along with a list of previously opened apps and data.
