We have a request to change the search results to link to an external site. When searching currently, it shows the correct List Items in the results. When clicking a list item, it takes the user to the DispForm.aspx page. However, we would like it to link to an external site which is another column (hyperlink) in that list item.
I've played with Search settings, but can only change the scope of the results. Is there a way to change the link of the list item in the results?
One of the options could be "Microsoft answers" - e.g. bookmarks, Q&As. Manage bookmarks
The other Option - update results layouts (it's a new feature - check MC489165) Manage result layouts for SharePoint results in Microsoft Search

Basically, you'll need to modify adaptive card designer layout listed under Search & Intelligence>Admin Center for that specific search result/Result Types under Customizations. Modify "TextBlock" type and its text (url).
