JSON-LD entity linking (sameAs)
sameAs ties your entity to ones an agent already knows, such as Wikipedia, Crunchbase, and your own profiles.

What it checks
The extension reads the page’s JSON-LD, from the rendered page when it can and
from the raw HTML otherwise. If there is Schema.org data, it looks for a
sameAs property anywhere in it, including nested nodes and @graph entries.
Results
| Status | When |
|---|---|
| Pass | The structured data declares sameAs |
| Warn | There is Schema.org data, but no sameAs anywhere in it |
| N/A | The page has no Schema.org JSON-LD |
How to fix
Add sameAs to your Organization or Person entity, listing the URLs of the
same entity elsewhere: your Wikipedia or Wikidata entry and your official
profiles. That lets an agent resolve you to an entity it already knows.
