Step 1

Your browser may warn you

The installer is signed by DomusFlow BV. Your browser may still ask you to confirm.

Edge says “SearchFlow-setup.exe isn't commonly downloaded”: click the … menu on the download → Keep → the arrow next to Delete → Keep anyway. Then click Open file.

Edge: SearchFlow-setup.exe isn't commonly downloaded

The arrow next to Delete shows Keep anyway

Chrome says “This file may be dangerous”: click Keep.

When you open the file, Windows asks “Do you want to run this file?”: click Run.

Windows: Do you want to run this file? Publisher DOMUSFLOW BV, Run

Step 2

Install

Click Install, then Finish; no administrator rights are needed. SearchFlow starts by itself.

Setup: Completing, Open SearchFlow ticked, Finish

Step 3

Add your mailbox

In SearchFlow, Settings → Add account (the first time, Settings is already open), and sign in with your Microsoft 365 work account.

Microsoft's permission screen lists what SearchFlow reads: your mail and your name. Click Accept.

SearchFlow after the first start: Settings with Add account

Microsoft: Permissions requested, Accept

Working with colleagues? Your Microsoft 365 administrator clicks this link once, signed in as administrator; if that is you, click it yourself. After that everyone in your company can sign in:

https://login.microsoftonline.com/organizations/adminconsent?client_id=19a659cd-b965-44e7-9465-3fbed07d7b21&redirect_uri=https://searchflow.be/approved

This one click approves mail and files together, for everyone in your company. Details for your administrator: searchflow.be/admins.

The administrator opens that link on their own PC. Microsoft's sign-in page also offers “Have an admin account? Sign in with that account” — do not use that on an employee's PC, because SearchFlow would then add the administrator's mailbox on that PC.

After Accept the browser shows “This site can't be reached”: that is normal, the approval is done.

Step 4

Search

Results appear while you type. The first sync of a big mailbox takes from minutes to an hour; the newest mail comes first, so you can search while the counts grow.

Put words in "quotes" for an exact phrase. Press Enter to ask a question.

Step 5

Files too

OneDrive and team sites need the same one-time approval by your administrator. If IT clicked the link in step 3, that is done and the files appear by themselves.

If not: Settings → the files line under your account → Request access. It shows Microsoft's approval page and a ready-made mail for IT.
