Ally 2.5.7 | Release to production: February 14, 2023

Updated features

On-Demand Domain Scan is now available in Ally for Web

Ally for Web administrators can now trigger scans of web domains directly from the Ally Accessibility report using the new Crawl Domain button. With this feature, institutions can trigger a crawl "on-demand" in between the normally scheduled crawls —to check recent content or section updates— to provide greater flexibility when tracking and fixing content issues.

After clicking Crawl Domain, administrators can see the scan progress or cancel the scan at any time.

Administrators will be notified through the user interface while the report is being updated.

Scheduled automated scans will continue to run as intended, as soon as the on-demand scan is completed.
