I have a azure cognitive search index that my GPT35Turbo model is grounded on, the model provides answers based on the grounded data in Azure OpenAI Playground. But when I deploy this to a PVA in (East US Region), the PVA chat bot doesn't provide any answers from the generative answers node.
Checked the connection properties and data source parameters, everything looks okay. Am I missing anything?

Hi @skandula1406
Nothing comes to mind when looking at your configuration.
Can you open a support request so this can be investigated in more details?

It's worth also verifying that your index isn't configured for vector or semantic search while PVA is configured for basic search.

Same thing is happening to me. Did you find a way to make it work? Thanks!
No luck yet, MSFT support has been looking into it for over a week now. Will update here once I hear something.
While this gets resolved, I’ve deployed the chatbot using flows.
Here are the high level steps-
1. send user query as input to flow
2. query cognitive search index (Http - Post or Get)
3. feed the results of the query from step 2 to Azure OpenAI instance along with the system message.
4. capture response from OpenAI GPT model and send it back to PVA.
I would’ve preferred conversation boosting to leverage open conversation without having to direct the user to pre-defined topics, but this solution works well for now.
Have tried both simple and semantic search, neither worked 😞
yeah. keyword search and semantic search neither worked. Tried both GPT-4 and GPT35-Turbo too.
@skandula1406 Any tutorial on how you did the cognitive search and feed it to OpenAI model? Spent the whole day trying to find a solution, looks like I have go with the Flow too.
I ran into numerous issues in trying to accomplish this solution the way it is today, with quite a few improvisations to fit my requirements, but the posts below gave me a solid start.

@HenryJammes did the trick.
Hope this helps!
