Abstract
Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for implementing enterprise graph search. In at least one implementation, an enterprise search service receives a search request that includes a graph query directed to an enterprise graph. The graph is representative of various objects and actors associated with an enterprise, as well as which of the actors performed which of various actions with respect to each of the various objects. The service searches at least a portion of the enterprise graph to identify a subset of the objects that relate to the actors as defined by the graph query in terms of at least the actors and actions. A reply to the search request may include graph results indicative of the subset of the objects.
