bundle exec rake check-links
This long running rake task performs a GET request using a timeout and a redirect limit against each active link. It stores the HTTP status code of the result (or the error condition that it encountered). The status is shown in the UI to help identify links that need to be fixed.
A digest of the results is available for interaction links at:
https://local-links-manager.publishing.service.gov.uk/check_links_status.csv
and for homepages at:
