crawler.form_interaction.pre_crawl.[groupId].url

Background

This parameter specifies the URL of a page which contains a HTML web form when using pre-crawl form interaction.

A [GROUP_ID] must be set when configuring this setting to link this to the other options for this rule (group ID must be a number).

In the pre crawl mode, the webcrawler logs in once at the start of the crawl in order to get a set of authentication cookie(s). These can then be used during the crawl in order to get access to authenticated content.

Configuration parameters for a rule are grouped using a [GROUP_ID] value common across all settings that make up the rule.

Setting the key

Set this configuration key in the search package or data source configuration.

Use the configuration key editor to add or edit the crawler.form_interaction.pre_crawl.[groupId].url key, and set the value. This can be set to any valid String value.

Default value

None.

Examples

Configure a form interaction rule that applies to https://www.example.com/login.

crawler.form_interaction.pre_crawl.1.url=https://www.example.com/login
