We’re migrating our content to a new guides site. We plan to fully launch this new site later in July. You can preview the new site now. To help you get up to speed with the new guidance structure, please visit our orientation page .

Accessing the Similarity Report

Find the file
containing the document you'd like to view and select its title.
The similarity match overview
The similarity match overview can be found in the side panel of the document viewer; it provides a breakdown of all the source matches that have been found within a paper, ordered by highest similarity match to lowest.
The similarity match overview provides source matches for student papers, publications, internet web pages, and private repository uploads.
Selecting a source
By selecting a source in the match overview side panel, this will highlight the match within the document itself. You can use the number and color identifiers to easily link the highlighted text in the document to the source in the match overview side panel.
Navigating through matches
Selecting a source will display each of its associated matches within the match overview side panel; you can freely navigate through them using the forward and back arrows. However, if there is only one match linked to a source, the arrows will be disabled.
You can only view match details for submissions that have been made to your own private repository. Administrators can change how much of the original text you can view.
