# EToolbox Link Inspector
[](https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0)
**EToolbox Link Inspector** is a tool for Adobe Experience Manger (AEM) that collects broken links (external/internal) under the specified content path. The tool generates a comprehensive report with the detailed information about broken links and provides content managers with a possibility to fix batches of broken links via UI dialog.
## Description
**EToolbox Link Inspector** gathers the following data in relation to broken links:
- link href
- link type
- http status code
- status message
- reference to the page containing the link, including the page's title and location
- reference to the component containing the link, including the component's title, resource type and location
- reference to the property containing the link, including the property's name and location
The primary focus is detection of broken links on an Author instance and correcting them by content managers before going to live.
The tool provides a possibility to fix broken links (single as well as batches) via TouchUI based dialogs:
Besides, there is a broad set of configurable options for report generation allowing to set up content and links filtering in order to have a more precise inspection.
See [project's Wiki](#) for more details.
