Page Refinement - Log Broken Links

This article documents the ability of WikiTraccs to check already migrated pages for broken links.

Note: This page is under construction.

You need migrated pages. If you did not migrate pages, yet, searching for broken links doesn’t make sense.

Scope

The scope for WikiTraccs when checking for broken links is the SharePoint site. All pages in a site will be checked.

How to Select Sites to Check

Just as when migrating content, you’ll use the Space Inventory list to tell WikiTraccs which sites to check.

In the Space Inventory, WikiTraccs looks for selectors that are marked for transformation (those have a check mark set in the WT_Setting_RequestTransformation column).

For all selectors marked for transformation, WikiTraccs collects the target sites. That’s the value you entered in the WT_Setting_TargetSiteRootUrl column (hopefully before migrating content).

Those are the sites that WikiTraccs will check.

Coming soon.

Coming soon.

Limitations

The following limitations apply:

  • searching for potential link targets of broken links has not (yet) reached peak performance
  • links in text web parts are checked; links in web parts (for example image web part) are not handled (yet)
  • handling of page links only; no @-mentions (yet), no attachment links (yet)
