### Accessing the Chrome Extension

- First, make sure you’ve requested access to the Chrome Extension for your Checker organisation. Once it’s enabled, your Customer Success Manager will send you a link to install it.
- Once the extension is installed, open the content you want to scan in your Chrome browser.
- Right-click anywhere on the page and select **"Inspect."**
- In the Console bar, choose **"Recite Me"** (you might need to click the double arrows **»** to find it).
- Then, log in to the extension using your **Checker username and password**.

### When to use the Chrome Extension

- **Unpublished Content** - As long as your content opens in a browser window, you don’t need a live URL to scan it. This lets you check accessibility **before** publishing.
- **Single Page Applications** - On sites where the URL stays the same as users interact with content, the Chrome Extension can scan **at any point**. This means you can test accessibility **throughout the user's journey** by scanning after different actions or page changes.
- **Secure Portals** - If your site has a login-protected area, you can log in as usual and then open the Chrome Extension to scan the portal content. This means there's **no need to share login details** to perform accessibility checks.
- **Updating Live Content** - If you’re making changes to a live page, you can run a quick one-off scan using the Chrome Extension to make sure no new accessibility issues have been introduced.

### Scanning Content

- Click **"Scan Page"** to start an accessibility scan of your current page.
- Any issues found will be shown by **WCAG Technique**.
- You can filter the results by **WCAG Level** and **user role** to suit your needs.
- Click the arrow next to a finding to expand it - this shows a **detailed explanation** of how to fix the issue and gives you the option to **highlight** the element directly in your browser.
- You can navigate through and highlight **individual issues** for a specific technique, or click **"View All"** to highlight **all issues** in that section at once.
- **Note:** For any issues detected that are **not visible on the page**, the **Highlight** tool may not always be able to show them directly in the browser.
