How do I provide feedback for the Search Crawler EAP? [EAP is over - the crawler is now generally available]

Feedback during the beta stage is very important for us. We want to hear what you have to say about Search Crawler because ultimately we've created this feature for you.  Below, you can find some guidelines on the various ways to give us feedback.

Different ways to give us feedback

This forum is probably the best place. We'd like to try and keep feedback as social and collaborative as possible. It's where we can answer the most amount of questions or comments so that everyone can see and benefit from it. That said, there are some suggested guidelines...

Suggested guidelines for giving feedback

We value your feedback, no matter what it is. We encourage you to tell us what you like, dislike, and where you could see improvements. We'd like to see a healthy forum for discussion, but we can't do that without just a little bit of effort from everyone. 

Here are a couple of pointers that will really help us understand your feedback and work with you to make the ticket forms beta even better:

  • When you see something you dislike or see something you'd like improved, write it down and think about it for a little while
  • Try to be as clear as possible in your feedback; explain why you like/dislike something, and how it could be improved. If you can do screenshots easily, we'd love to see them
  • Be patient when waiting for responses from Zendesk
  • Don't use sarcasm, be rude to other customers or staff, and don't use strong language. We will moderate forum posts where we think reasonable

Ultimately, we want the feedback forums to be a place where any customer can come and give feedback.

Reporting bugs

As these updates are in beta, the best way to report a bug is to do so here in this forum, rather than contacting us. This is especially helpful if you're reporting a minor bug or a bug that is not directly impacting your customers. That being said, we do realize that during betas more urgent issues can crop up.  As this is a beta, the response times may be longer than they typically would be going through the normal support channels.

To sign up for the EAP please fill out this form.

I have added the verification code and it appears the crawler is working because there are records appearing, but it still says domain verification has failed. 

How can I find out what the issue is?

@thomas verschoren12

Thanks for the feedback! We have other verification methods, TXT DNS record and HTML file, as candidates to improve the feature, but left them out for the initial EAP release to gage feedback.
Unfortunately I don't have a workaround right now.

Could you share some more details on why it is " not always trivial to add the correct meta data to <head>" and in which cases/configurations?

I'd love to hear from anyone running in to problems with the verification method available or domain verification in general.

@Jordan Brown We had a bug that was showing the wrong status even though it has verified the domain ownership, but it was fixed. Do you still see the same?
