Good to know: if you have Viewer rights you won't be able to add new Groups or Projects. In that case please ask your Admin/Editor user to add new projects. You can go directly to the Dashboard by clicking Audit icon on the left navigation menu.
First you need to create Groups and Projects to be able to start crawling websites or web pages. Click the Projects icon on the left navigation menu and you get to the Site Manager.
On the bottom-right corner of the page there is a floating button with a “plus” symbol on it. When clicking on it, two smaller floating buttons appear, on the top “Add Group” and the bottom one “Add Project”.
Add group: it just requires two inputs, one value which is the name of the group. Mandatory field.
Add project: project represents those websites, site paths or specific URL that will be analyzed by the web application. When adding a new project you will have to provide the following information:
Start URL: the web application’s crawler will begin navigating your website from the start URL. The crawler will never leave the path you input on this field (e.g. if you set your start user as “www.mysite.com/path1” the web application will analyze all those URLs within the “path1” and nothing else).
Alias: this is a regular string to better represent the project.
Group: All projects need to belong to one project. If this dropdown is empty you would need to create a new group first.
Crawler type: to define the location from which the web application will crawl your project. The default value is “Germany”.
User Agent: a characteristic string that lets servers and network peers identify the application, operating system, vendor…
