Site and page names are used on the browser tab, ArcGIS Enterprise item details page, social media snippets, and in Enterprise Sites search and search engine results. Administrators, site managers, and core team members can modify a site or page name and its corresponding summary to provide clear and accurate metadata.
Note:
Name changes are not applied to the site or page URL. For more information, refer to Edit page URL.
The summary is the same summary found on the site's corresponding item in ArcGIS Enterprise. The same applies to pages and items. Site and page summaries are included in the HTML metadata collected by search engines.
