Use On-Page Audit when you want a technical SEO check of one page: its title, meta description, headings, canonical link, status code, word count, links, loading times, and an overall on-page score. The step returns one object for the page you give it.

​
Configuration

Add this step from the Research group in Search steps…. A value with no scheme, such as example.com/pricing, is treated as an https:// URL. Only web pages (http:// or https://) can be audited. To audit several pages, put this step inside a loop and pass each page URL to Page URL.

​
Output

Click Run in the step header to test the step. Fetch Hive shows the audit in Output after the run completes. Use the variable picker in a later step to insert the exact output path available for that run. The base reference is:
The output is one object. It includes:
  • url, status_code, and onpage_score, the overall on-page score for the page.
  • title, title_length, meta_description, description_length, and canonical.
  • headings, an object with a list of headings for each level, such as headings.h1 and headings.h2.
  • word_count, internal_links_count, external_links_count, images_count, and has_images_missing_alt.
  • page_timing, with load times such as largest_contentful_paint, dom_complete, and time_to_interactive.
  • checks, a set of true or false flags for the page, and issues, a list of the problem checks that were found.
To use the score and the first heading:
There is no items or results list on this step. Some fields can be empty when the page does not provide them, or when Render in a browser is off.

​
Example

Add On-Page Audit from the Research group in Search steps…. Set Name to something like Pricing page audit. Enter https://example.com/pricing in Page URL, or insert a variable that resolves to a page URL. Click Run and review the result in Output before using fields in a later step, for example to ask a Prompt step to write the three most important fixes from {{step_2.output.issues}}.

​
Cost

Hosted runs convert the recorded service cost plus a 6% service fee into task credits. The charge is per page. Turning on Render in a browser or Run JavaScript raises the service cost a little. See Task costs.

​
Notes

  • If the page cannot be reached, the step fails or returns the status code the page gave, and the error message is the provider’s message. When the step fails then decides whether the workflow stops or continues.
  • Personal model keys are not used. This step always runs as a hosted provider call.
