Action Summary
The Link Validator GitHub Action automates the validation of links and URLs in Markdown documentation by checking GitHub links, external HTTP(S) URLs, local file references, and Datadog URLs. It helps prevent the frustration of broken links by identifying issues like outdated external URLs, inaccessible private repo links, or deprecated GitHub endpoints, and integrates seamlessly into CI workflows to catch errors during PR reviews. Key capabilities include API-based GitHub link validation, HTTP(S) link checking with redirects, and support for both GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES).
