Introduction
------------

The Web Governance scan is a powerful tool that crawls all pages of a website. The document scan identifies all of the same types of issues as a domain scan. This page provides instructions for admin users on how to turn on the document scan and run a document scan.

Activate document scan
----------------------

*   For instructions for admin users on how to activate document scanning, visit [Document scan](/node/58551).
*   For instructions on how to scan a PDF file for Accessibility issues, visit [Accessibility: PDFs](/node/58576).

Include password-protected and internal pages
---------------------------------------------

It is possible in some cases to include internal and password-protected pages in the scan.

For more information, visit [Scan password-protected and internal pages](/node/58566/).

Note

This may require the help of an advanced website administrator with HTML knowledge.

Log in with Office 365 or Basic Auth
------------------------------------

Office365 and Basic auth require the registered email or username and password. These are considered customer logins. Custom logins may require help from a developer or web team member for the initial setup.
