Steps

  1. Confirm your Semrush plan includes Projects API access (an SEO Business subscription plus available API units) before building against it
  2. Create or configure a Site Audit campaign for the project, setting crawl scope (subdomains included/excluded), pages-to-crawl limit, and URL parameters to exclude
  3. Set the schedule parameter for periodic automated runs, or trigger manual runs on demand from your pipeline
  4. Poll for audit completion, then pull the structured errors/warnings/notices report for the completed crawl
  5. Feed categorized issues into your ticketing/alerting system, deduplicating against previously-reported issues so the same warning doesn't reopen a ticket every run
