The Content Search Web Part displays content based on search. Every time a user opens a page that has a Content Search Web Part on it, a query is sent to the search index, and search results are displayed automatically in the Web Part. You can use one of the default queries that are available in Quick Mode, or you can choose to build your own query by using Advanced Mode.
What do you want to do?
Build a quick query
In Quick Mode, the Basics tab contains the most basic options for building a query. You can refine your query further by using the Refiners tab and the Settings tab, and test out search results for different versions of the final query on the Test tab.
Basics
You can easily build a query by selecting options on the Basics tab. The Search Result Preview pane on the right hand side automatically displays the search results.

In the Select a query list, choose a query by selecting a result source. Result sources specify what content to get search results from.

In the Restrict results by app list, select an option for restricting where you want to get search results from.

Under Restrict by tag, you can choose to limit results to content that is tagged with specific terms.

On the Settings tab, you can select more settings for your query. You can decide to use query rules, use URL rewriting, select loading behavior, and define priority for the query.
