Configure feedback

The search widget includes feedback buttons that help assess search quality issues. This page explains how to turn this feature on or off using the Google Cloud console.

When the feedback feature is turned on, the widget rendered on your web page displays Thumbs up and Thumbs down buttons. Your end users can click the buttons to indicate whether the quality of the results appeared as expected. If a user clicks the Thumbs down button, they are prompted to select from a list of reasons why the quality is not as expected and to provide additional comments.

If your app is located in the global region, then the widget feedback is visible to your Google Cloud administrator and Google. If your app is located in a multi-region, then only your Google Cloud administrator sees the feedback. Regardless, your users shouldn't include Personally Identifiable Information (PII) or sensitive data with feedback.
