Websites and sections

Governance tests websites. A website can also have sections: parts of it, such as /admissions/, that Silktide reports on as if each were a website of its own, with its own scores, checks and reports.

Section 0 is the whole website#

Every website has a section that cannot be removed, with the sectionId 0. It covers the whole website. So wherever an operation takes a websiteId and a sectionId, section 0 means "the whole website", and that is the default when you leave sectionId out.

Subsite ids#

Some responses name a website and a section together as a subsiteId, written {websiteId}-{sectionId}:

subsiteId	Means
2-0	The whole of website 2.
2-5	Section 5 of website 2.

List websites and their sections returns one row per section, section 0 included, each with its subsiteId.
