Scanner:



In this section you can find the option to run an on demand scan that will show you the cookies set in the store, when a visitor lands in your store initially. The feature is available for all of our paid plan users.
There is also an option for the cookies listed in the scanner, to be auto transferred in the respective cookie groups, which is available for the Plusand Enterprise users of the app. With this feature you also have the option to arrange them with the help of AI.



The second part of the scanner is the Scheduled Scanner which can be set for scanning your store periodically, and is available for the Enterprise plan users. It can be set to run scans in the store every day, a certain day every week, or on a certain data every month. You can also set the time of the day in which this scan should run in your store.
Once the scan is complete, you will be notified via email if any new cookies are found by the scanner in your store, and the email will contain detailed information on what actions the automated scanner took, to arrange these cookies in the app settings, as shown below:
