Implement ACAP

Implementing ACAP should take just 30 minutes at the most. It is an extremely simply process for any IT professional.

Implementation

If you have a robots.txt file:

For a simple implementation of ACAP, all you need to do is to use an online tool to add below the content of your current robots.txt file the equivalent information expressed in ACAP vocabulary. The task takes only a moment and, if you have access to your current robots.txt file, the online tool and instructions on how to use it can be found here.

For a more customised implementation, you will need to make modifications to employ more ACAP features. An Implementation Guide can be found here.

Further information can be found in Part 1 of the formal specification of ACAP Version 1.0 Technical Specification, which can be found here.

If you do not have a robots.txt file or wish to refine your implementation by embedding permissions directly in web pages:

Another way of communicating permissions information to web crawlers is by embedding permissions information directly in the content resources themselves. Usually used in conjunction with the inclusion of ACAP permissions in a "robots.txt" file, ACAP permissions can also be embedded in any HTML web resource. How to do so is explained in the Implementation Guide (see above) and is formally specified in Part 2 of the ACAP Version 1.0 Technical Specification, which can be found here.

Final step: show that you are ACAP-enabled

Once you have implemented ACAP on your website, please add the "ACAP enabled" logo to your home page and other pages on your site. Go to: Add an "ACAP-enabled" logo to find out how to add the logo to your website.
