Andrew, yes, FAF will search the container directories of cloud storage 
services that are normally located on your boot disk. There is an advanced 
option (hidden by default) that will let you choose to search on whether an 
item is “dataless” (i.e. downloaded) or not, but the default will include them 
which means you should at least be able to search on file names and metadata in 
your cloud drives.

E.T., glad you like it! It’s really nice and I purchased recently when he added 
support for searching network drives by executing the search on the remote 
device itself, currently in beta but soon to be released as a Pro feature. 
Spotlight is still necessary for searching certain types of content, 
particularly the text of PDFs, but FAF has never let me down where Spotlight 
often misses something or its indexes haven’t caught up yet.
