When you click on Resources > Sources in the top menu, the list of sources will be displayed.
You have 4 different menus to display your sources:
All sources: all sources present on your platform.
My sources: all sources added by the user.
My favorites: sources added to my favorites (by clicking on the star to the left of the source).
My contributions: sources for which you have been designated as a contributor. You can then add modifications to these sources.
The list consists of several sources / domain names.
Under these sources/domain names, you’ll find all the robots created to follow its various pages.
This table shows different criteria for the domain name/source:
- Its monitoring.
- Its favorite button.
- Its name.
- Its category.
- Its country of origin.
- Its language.
- Its volume of information collected.
- Its status.
Cikisibot
You can now categorize a domain name so that you can feed your searches with all its pages.
By activating the cikisibot button, as soon as a new robot follows a page of this domain name, (whether created on your platform or on our community), it will automatically be added to your sourcing and will feed your searches.
Status of a source
A source has two different types of status:
Crawl status: has the source successfully completed its last crawl?
- Green > yes: the last crawl was successful.
- Orange > no: the last crawl failed but we’re still trying.
- Rouge > no: the last crawl failed and we’ve stopped trying.
Quality content: is based on the percentage of information collected by the robot. This is based on the different parts of the article we’re supposed to collect:
- Title
- Publication date
- Author
- Description
- Content
- Image
