I refer to this blog post [Evolution of Workplace Search: Search your private data with Elasticsearch | Elastic Blog](https://www.elastic.co/blog/evolution-workplace-search-private-data-elasticsearch)

So it seems the Workplace Search concept is being removed/replaced - but it isn't clear to me whether the interface will remain - going forward are customers expected to build their own interfaces using components?

Hi @catmanjan,

Yes we will expect customers to build and maintain their own API / UI for workplace search.

We provide boilerplate code for you to use and adapt for your own needs [here](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-labs/tree/main/example-apps/internal-knowledge-search)

You can also use Search UI with the elasticsearch connector, which provides components like SearchBox and Facet so its simple to build your own UI. [Quick start here](https://docs.elastic.co/search-ui/tutorials/elasticsearch)
