Check scan results by component

You need to run an automated scan before you can check scan results by component. The automated scanning tool only shows scan results for components with potential issues.

To check scan results by component:

1. Go to Scans.
2. Choose the scan you want to check.
3. Select Scan results.
4. In the View by dropdown, choose Component. The report will list the components with potential accessibility issues.

View finding details

A finding is an instance where an accessibility rule has been violated. Findings are organized by rule in the Scan results report.

Rules can be violated more than once on a digital property, so you may have multiple findings from the same rule.

To go to an individual finding from a scan:

1. Go to Scans.
2. Find the scan you want to view and select Scan results.
3. Select the rule description. This will bring you to all the findings for that rule.
   
   
   
   
4. Select an individual finding. A sidebar with the finding details will open. Learn more about the finding details.

1. Go to Scans.
2. Choose the scan you want to check.
3. Select Scan results.
