There is also the option to limit the report to items that have been modified within a certain time frame.
Inclusion Rules – Allows you to limit which areas to report on within a site. File Extensions – Two fields containing the option to extend what file types the scanner will report on. You can also enable Document Scanning here and an option to only show broken links in the final report which I’ve checked for demonstration purposes. Scan Options – Options covering what type of records will be searched, including SP lists, Page Libraries, Document Libraries and System lists. There are also a lot of useful options which I’ll cover briefly below. A new page should have opened now where you can give the report a ‘Job Name’, change the site to scan and verify your login credentials. Right-click on the site you plan to run a broken link report on then select ‘Create Reports’ followed by ‘Broken Link Report’. Select Add and the broken link manager will now add the site collection and all subsites to your environment list as shown below. A window will appear, enter the URL for your SharePoint deployment, making sure to include ‘http’ or ‘https’, then select the authentication type and enter your login details if required. Select “Add Site” found in the left-hand navigation. The steps to run a broken link search are pretty straightforward, as an example I will be running a search on a site and all of its subsites. Built-In mechanism for Site Owners to import user-defined list of URLs to fix/replace. Enhanced Caching of URLs to improve performance.

The software is capable of searching all major file types I tested and almost all areas of SharePoint from what I’ve been able to see and does so quickly compared to other solutions out there.

I personally found the software easy to figure out and to use and I’m not the type to go diving into a technical manual unless absolutely required. QIPoint describes their product as “a simple, yet powerful application that will help users find & fix those annoying broken links! Simply enter the Site URL and click scan, it will build a report on broken links in your sites.” and they seem to be right. This is where QIPoints excellent “ Broken Link Checker” comes in.

This is a problem I’ve had to tackle often due to users reporting “missing files” or “broken sites” among other things and although Microsoft’s own free tool is good, it’s just not powerful enough in an enterprise setting where the bulk of broken links can be located in documents where the free offerings can’t see them. This can be a serious headache not just for system administrators, but for users too. If Microsoft is to be believed, SharePoint is one of their fastest growing products used by tens of thousands of companies around the world, however as with the majority of this type of software, it is prone to broken links, whether they are in old documents that haven’t been updated in some time, or broken references to images of files or even locations.
