Choose whether your public Kit appears in search engine results.
Only Owners and Admins can change Kit search engine visibility.
Understanding search engine indexing
When your Kit is indexable:
Search engines (Google, Bing, etc.) can find it
It may appear in search results
Anyone can discover it by searching
When your Kit is not indexable:
Search engines are told not to index it
It won't appear in search results
Only people with the direct link can find it
Configuring search visibility
Open a Kits's Share Settings
Ensure public access is enabled
Enable or disable search engine indexing
When to allow indexing
Allow indexing for:
Public brand resource centers
Design systems you want designers to find
Content meant for broad discovery
Marketing asset libraries
Block indexing for:
Partner-only content
Pre-release materials
Client-specific Kits
Anything meant for limited audiences
