# URL tab

This tab provides an overview of custom URL categories and their added URLs.

The screen is split into two parts - one for custom URL categories, and the other for URLs added to a category.

## Grid of custom URL categories

The following operations can be performed:

Add a customized category | Creates a new category. Clicking on this button creates a new line, allowing you to name the category and add comments if necessary.
Delete | Deletes an existing category. Select the category in question, then click on the button. If the category is in use, a warning message will ask you to confirm the operation.
Check usage | Checks whether a category is being used in a configuration. Select the category in question, then click on the button. The results of the check are shown in the module tree.
Check URL classification | Checks whether a URL belongs to a category. Custom and dynamic categories will be searched. This will help to determine whether a URL needs to be added to a category. Enter the desired URL in the text zone, then click on Classify. A panel then appears, displaying the categories that contain this URL.

The grid includes the following:

URL category | Name of the category.
Comments | Description of the category.

NOTE
The number of characters for a URL category is restricted to 255.

## Grid of URLs in a category

The contents of the grid of URLs (right) can be refreshed by selecting a custom URL category from the grid on the left.

The following actions can be performed in the grid:

Add a URL | Adds a URL to a category. Clicking on this button creates a new line, allowing you to enter the URL and add comments if necessary. The URL may contain the wildcards * and ?.
Delete | Deletes a URL from a category. Select the URL in question, then click on the button.

The grid includes the following:

URL | Name of the URL. It may contain the wildcards * and ?.
Comments | You can add a comment in this field to describe each URL listed.

The list of Characters allowed and syntax restrictions apply only to URLs. The following wildcards can be used:

* | replaces a character string. EXAMPLES *.company.com/ makes it possible to include all sub-domains of company.com (e.g. mail.company.com or www.company.com) as well as all elements that follow the slash “/”. *.exe makes it possible to include all URLs ending with ".exe".
? | replaces a single character. EXAMPLE ???.company.com is equivalent to www.company.com or ftp.company.com but not to www1.company.com.
