https://docs.yourcompany.com) - Click Ingest

What Gets Crawled
Included

- Pages linked from starting URL
- Same domain only
- Protected/authenticated pages (via embedded browser login)
Not Included

Crawling Protected Pages
If your docs or website requires a login, Ourguide includes an embedded browser in the dashboard so you can authenticate before crawling.How it works
- Go to Knowledge Base → Website
- An embedded browser loads your URL
- Log in to your website inside that browser as you normally would
- Once logged in, click Start Crawling
You don’t need to copy cookies or configure any headers — just log in and crawl.
Re-indexing
When content changes:- Go to Knowledge Base
- Enter URL again
- Click Ingest
Re-indexing replaces previous content.
Tip
- Use your docs subdomain for focused content (
docs.yourcompany.com)
