About using SiteImprove on non-public sites (i.e. sites in development)

It is not possible for SiteImprove to scan sites still in development (unpublished, inside of Cascade) as other public sites can. The cloud service provider or third-party application that the site uses blocks automated crawlers and it is treated as a Single Page Application.  This means that it loads content into a page dynamically, based on manual interactions with the page, after it has been rendered for the first time.  Therefore, all accessibility scans for libguides will need to be done through the SiteImprove's browser extension, and done manually.
You can find more information on browser extensions through SiteImprove here: https://www.siteimprove.com/integrations/browser-extensions/
