Initial setup: project folder
Before working in Axessibly, pick a folder on your computer where project data will be stored.
Why it matters?
Scans, local results, and settings for that project live in files inside the folder you choose.
How to select the folder
- Open https://app.axessibly.com
- Go to Settings
- Under File management, click Select folder
- Choose (or create) a folder
Folder tips
- Use a dedicated folder per client or site
- Prefer clear names
- Keep projects in a structured tree on disk
New project = new folder
- Settings → File management → Change / Select folder
- Pick a different folder than the previous project
Each folder is a separate project; switching folders switches which local data the app loads.
Switching projects
Settings → File management → Change → pick another project folder.
First steps after setup
- Upload a sitemap
- Run scans from the Dashboard or Sitemap page
- Review results on the Dashboard and Issues pages
- Use Reports; with Pro, use Export for downloadable files
Notes
- Data for the selected project is stored in the folder you choose (local-first design).
- Back up that folder periodically.
- Use a modern browser (Chrome, Edge, or similar).
