Edit an Existing Content Source

There are three things you can change in an existing content source: 

• Authentication: Rename your content source and authenticate again.
• Frequency: Change the intervals between two subsequent crawls.
• Rules. Decide what to crawl.

1. To access these settings, go to Content Sources and click .

   

2. On the screen that opens next, select one of the following options: 
   Authentication

   Changing the name of a content source is straightforward, but the method of authentication varies with each platform. Refer to the platform-specific documentation for details.

   Frequency

   Set Up Crawl Frequency

   The first crawl is always manual and is performed after configuring the content source. In Choose A Date, select a date to start crawling; the data created after the selected date will be crawled. For now, keep the frequency to its default value Never and click Set and move to the next section.

   

   Rules

   As was with Authentication, managing the settings in Rules varies with each content source. Refer to the documentation of your platform to learn more.
