## Basic Usage
Enter a valid URL to scan in the textbox and press the "Scan" button. The default settings will crawl your website and scan 100 pages for accessibility issues.
## Limiting pages scanned
If you find a scan takes too long to complete due to large website, or there are too many pages in a sitemap to scan, you may choose to limit number of pages scanned. Click on the drop down and enter the desired number of pages to scan.
## Advanced scan options
Click on the "Advanced scan options" button to configure the scan options.
### Scan Type Selection
#### Website Crawl
The default scan option for Oobee. Oobee will crawl and scan all the links (up to page limit) within the domain in the provided URL.
#### Sitemap Crawl
With sitemap crawl, provide a URL to a sitemap file (e.g. `https.domain.com/sitemap.xml`) and Oobee will crawl and scan all the links (up to page limit) within the domain in the provided URL.
#### Custom Flow
Custom flow is used to scan Single-Page Applications (SPAs) or websites. Each page-scan is initiated by the user that is triggered via clicking the _`Scan this page`_ button. Once the specific user flow is completed and scanned, close the browser to automatically generate the Custom Flow Report.
