Changes content or settings on your site. See the recipe below for approval requirements. Read only cannot make changes.

  1. Your assistant lists the connected sites and starts a background job.
  2. On each site, it checks for updates, updates Yoast SEO and clears the cache in that order. If an action fails or needs approval, later actions wait on that site; other sites continue.
  3. It checks the job’s progress and reports the result for each site.
  • “Stop the job: don’t start anything new.” (Commands already running still finish.)
  • “On all my sites, which ones are not on the latest WordPress?”
  • Up to 50 sites and 50 commands per site. Each successful command uses one website action. Starting, checking and stopping the job are free.
  • Each site uses its own safety level. At Standard, changes require approval on that site.
