Answer

CMS Deep Linking is a feature that creates a link from the Siteimprove platform directly to the editing environment for the same page in your Content Management System (CMS). It allows users to move from identifying issues in Siteimprove to editing the affected page in their CMS more quickly, helping streamline the process of fixing website errors.
