Media Indexing Documentation

Enable images, video, audio, and text-based documents for indexing and SERP tabs.

  1. Enable media under Inclusion

    In Crawl → Inclusion, turn on the media asset types you want indexed. Document search covers text-based PDF and Word/DOCX. Scanned PDFs, spreadsheets, slide decks, and generated transcripts are not supported. Video caption search uses existing VTT/SRT tracks when present.

  2. Find media on the SERP

    Indexed images, videos, documents, and audio appear on dedicated SERP tabs when those types are enabled—alongside posts, pages, and products in All.
