Considerations and caveats
- Non-cascading: SEO settings are unique per location and don't cascade to nested locations (e.g., the SEO settings of a blog channel do not apply to the articles published on it).
- Anonymous access: Search engines can only access pages that are open to the public (have anonymous access enabled).
- Digital workplace search: These settings don't affect your digital workplace's search functionality.
Who can do this
- Workplace Administrators
- Space Administrators (if the object is within their Space )
- Members with Edit Access to the location
- Members of groups with the Edit SEO role
Where can this be done
- Pages (including the Home page of a Space)

- Folder channels, folders, and files
- Forum channels and topics
- Microblog channels
- Task channels
- Wiki channels and wiki articles
