Article summary

The Repository Integration Status Report gives you information about every integration that Whatfix performs with your content repository.

RB_DB_repo_integrationstatus

Note

Apart from the status report on the dashboard, Whatfix also sends email notifications after a successful or failed integration.

Use Cases

You can access the status report for one or more of the following:

  • Check if your newly added repository content was crawled by Whatfix or not.
    For example, consider that you added a new article at 21:00 on a Monday, and the repository was crawled on the same day. Then, you can check the integration duration in the report to ensure that the new article was crawled or not.
  • See what articles were updated, deleted, or crawled in a particular sync-up session.
  • Track and update the articles that Whatfix failed to crawl from your repository.

Understand the Detailed Analysis Report

The detailed analysis report contains two columns:

  • link: The URL of the crawled link.
  • status: This column gives information about whether the link was added, not added, modified, or removed from the Dashboard during the sync and the reason why.

The following table describes the values status can take:
