Q: How much time does it take for a scan to complete?
A: A scan can take several hours. Issues that can affect the scan length are:
Domain size
Connection speed
Website structure.
See the scan progress on the Domain Dashboard in Monsido, and there is a progress bar over the On-Demand Scan button. Click on it to see the current status of the scan, including which link the scan is currently on:
Domain Dashboard
Crawl Status window
Note: If you do not see a link but the message:
RETRY
ON-HOLD
Any other questionable status
If a scan is slow because the amount of data is extremely large, try to limit the number of pages scanned with path constraints or link exclusions. See the user guide article:
