Frequently Asked Questions

How frequently can the agent scan for broken links?

The agent can be configured to scan at various frequencies, from real-time monitoring of newly published pages to daily, weekly, or monthly comprehensive site crawls, depending on your e-commerce site's update frequency and traffic volume.

Can the agent attempt to fix broken links automatically?

While its primary function is to identify and report, advanced configurations could allow it to suggest or even implement simple fixes (e.g., redirecting known broken URLs to relevant active pages) with prior approval or based on defined rules, though complex fixes often require human intervention.
