Abstract
A message is delivered to an external indexing service when a link is located within a given communication. The message includes a request to index content contained within the link to ensure that the link is indexed. When a keyword search query is performed within the communication system, both a local index and an external index associated with the external indexing service are queried. Results from the query are merged and surfaced.
