Scan history

Every scan this site has run, with what triggered it and what it measured. Opening one switches every screen to that scan, which is the part worth knowing about.

How to get there#

Monitor → Scan history.

  1. 1

    Open Scan history in the sidebar

    Last under Monitor.

  2. 2

    Or press the scan count on the site overview

    Shown as “4 scans” in the row of links under the score.

app.pixyscan.com/w/…/s/…/scans

Scan history: the run table with scan, status, score, pages, trigger, branch, URL scanned and created columns, under environment and type filter rows.
One row per scan. The Trigger and Branch columns usually explain a surprising score.

Reading a row#

Eight columns, of which Trigger and Branch explain the most.

FieldWhat it tells youWhat it does
ScanIts nameNamed after its date, or whatever you called it.
StatusCompleted · Failed · CancelledA failed scan has no report to open, but the row stays so you know it happened.
Score0-100What that scan scored. Blank if it did not finish.
PagesCountHow many URLs it crawled, at one credit each.
TriggerManual · Schedule · SDKWhat started it. This is the column that explains a scan you did not expect.
Branchmain, a previewWhich branch it measured. Scans are only compared with others on the same branch.
URL scannedThe targetThe address it actually crawled.
CreatedWhenWhen it started, with how long it took beside it.

The two filter rows above narrow the list by environment (All, Production, Preview) and by type (All, Crawls, Custom scans).

Opening a scan switches every screen to it#

A band at the top tells you when this is happening.

Click a scan and you land on its overview with a Historical scan band above it. From then on every screen in the sidebar - Issues, Pages, Content and the rest - shows that scan instead of the latest one. The scan is saved in the address, so a link you share opens the same view.

Back to live in that band returns you to the latest scan. Settings and this screen always stay current.

A pinned run

The Overview of a past run with a band above it reading Historical scan, the run's date, a Summary link and a Back to live button.
A historical scan. If a screen looks out of date, check for this band first.

Scans are kept for as long as your plan allows

Retention is a plan limit, so old scans eventually drop off this list. Export anything you need to keep for longer.
