Search Keyword Query - Site URL with space in Path not working

Question

I have tried to search for specific site using following simple Keyword Query:

Path:https://contoso.sharepoint.com/Test site 1/ FileType:doc*

Above query is not working due to space contains in the site URL.

Following works as it does not contains space in the path:

Path:https://contoso.sharepoint.com/TestSite1/ FileType:doc*

I have tried with Path parameter in quotations. It does not work & returns zero results.

Following does not work:

Any solution to search using keyword query for specific site with site url contains space ?

Find the solution. Use the Site in place of Path:

Site:"https://contoso.sharepoint.com/Test site 1/" FileType:doc*

Have your tried with search result source. Please create a search result source and try out it will work even if you have space in the url.
