Searching in SM Portal Knowledge base and external Wiki

Is there a possiblity to extend SM Portal Knowledgebase result with external wiki, eg display site as a frame?

We have Mediawiki KB and can't move all into cireson KB, so I need to display result from both kb in one user query.

    Hi Marek,

    The first challenge here is figuring out how to talk to the Mediawiki KB. It looks like they have a RESTful API that could be used for this: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Tutorial

    Assuming the content can be pulled in using the above API, it would be some customization effort to add a new search box or to incorporate the Mediawiki search within the out-of-box search boxses. All-in-all, its possible, but not trivial; this is certainly is something we could assist with as a Services engagement.

    Thanks,
    Nick
