The Website Tree Adaptor creates a site map which that is displayed in Analysis Center (Object Explorer), within the Object Explorer, and is used in reports for that allow content drilldown. In order to generate a site map, the adaptor crawls and indexes the website content (just like similar to search engines).

After running a scheduled website crawl, the adaptor adds updates new pages and removes the any deleted onespages. The adaptor also adds to the site map any un-indexed pages which are pages to the site map that have been detected by the tracking agent.

Unlike the CardioLog SharePoint adaptors which retrieve item metadata by using the SharePoint API, the Website Tree Adaptor collects information directly from the website pages. Therefore, some reporting features are not available, including the "by type" report filter and some of the portal growth reports (including content contributors, document modifications, document modifiers, portal actions, portal growth trend, portal inventory, and unmodified documents).

The CardioLog Website Tree Adaptor is also used for remotely hosted disconnected systems (, such as SharePoint Online).
