🗺️ Overview
Two identifiers are commonly needed when troubleshooting or integrating Search Atlas data: the Site Audit ID (also called a crawl batch ID) and the Blog Site ID. This article explains what each one is and how to retrieve them with help from the Search Atlas team.
📋 What Are These IDs?
- Site Audit ID / Crawl Batch ID: A unique identifier assigned to each crawl run performed on your domain. Every time Search Atlas audits your site, a new batch ID is generated.
- Blog Site ID: A persistent identifier linked to a specific domain registered under your Search Atlas account. It remains the same across crawl sessions.
🔍 How to Retrieve Your Blog Site ID and Site Audit ID
The Blog Site ID and Site Audit ID (Crawl Batch ID) are internal identifiers associated with your domain inside Search Atlas. To retrieve the correct IDs for your domain, contact our support team via the chat widget. When you do, have the following information ready so we can locate your IDs as quickly as possible:
- The exact domain name you need the IDs for (for example, example.com).
- Your Search Atlas account name.
- The approximate date of the crawl session if you need a specific Site Audit ID (Crawl Batch ID).
📊 About Crawl Batch IDs
Each time Search Atlas audits your site, a new Crawl Batch ID is generated for that session. If you need the ID for a specific crawl run, providing the date of that crawl when you contact support will help the team identify the correct batch quickly.
Note: Crawl batches are typically generated automatically on your set schedule, or manually when you trigger a new audit. If you do not see evidence of a crawl for a given day, a new audit may not have been initiated yet.
💡 Quick Reference: What to Have Ready
- Blog Site ID: Provide your domain name and account name to support — they will supply the ID.
- Site Audit ID / Crawl Batch ID: Provide your domain name, account name, and the crawl date to support — they will supply the specific batch ID.
