Ensuring your pages are always entity ready and being discovered across searches while reducing the load on schema deployment teams.

Add the URLs and the respective groups in the spreadsheet. You can copy URLs from the URL list downloaded earlier. Save the spreadsheet to your device.

Please Note:

  • Mention the group name against the URL under the ‘Group’ column. All URLs having the same group name will be grouped together.
  • If a URL shouldn’t be part of any group, enter ‘Ungroup’ against the ‘Group’ column. ‘Ungroup’ keyword is case insensitive.
  • Any URL which is not included in the grouping template but is present in Schema Manager will be ignored during re-grouping. It will appear as ungrouped.
