This article explains how to trigger a fresh crawl of your website and manually reprocess its data inside Search Atlas — so that any recent changes to your site's content, structure, or metadata are picked up and reflected in your reports and tools.

## **📍 Where to Find It**

Navigate to **OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Overview** (Website Overview) using the left sidebar. Select the website you want to recrawl from your list of projects.

## **🛠️ Step-by-Step**

1. Open **OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Overview** (Website Overview) from the left sidebar and select the target website.
2. Locate the crawl or site settings area within your selected project. Look for the button labeled **Recrawl Site** and click it to initiate a fresh crawl of your site.
3. Once the crawl has completed (you will typically see a progress indicator or a completion status message), look for a **Reprocess** or **Manual Reprocess** option in the same settings area. Click it to trigger the reprocessing of the newly crawled data.
4. If both actions are available as separate buttons, complete the **recrawl first** and wait for it to finish before initiating the manual reprocess — running them in sequence ensures the reprocess works on the most up-to-date crawl data.

## **✅ How to Confirm It Worked**

After initiating the recrawl and reprocess, confirm success by checking the following:

- The crawl status indicator should update from **In Progress** to **Completed** (or a similar finished state) — this confirms the recrawl finished successfully.
- The **Last Crawled** or **Last Updated** timestamp on your website should reflect today's date and time.
- Navigate to any report or tool that pulls data from this site (such as site audit results or page-level data) and verify that recent changes you made to your site — such as new pages, updated titles, or fixed issues — are now appearing correctly.
- If a reprocess was completed, previously flagged issues that you have since fixed should no longer appear, and any newly added content should now be visible in your data.
