## What to do next

To make content searchable using your new search profile, link one or more search sources to it. For instructions on linking search sources, see [Link a search source to a search profile](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/ai-search/link-search-source-profile-ais.md).

Your new search profile includes sample synonym and stop word dictionaries and a default typo handling dictionary. For more details on configuring and populating these dictionaries, see [Synonyms](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/ai-search/synonyms-ais.md), [Stop words](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/ai-search/stop-words-ais.md), and [Typo handling](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/platform-administration/ai-search/typo-handling-ais.md).
