 ### Configuring Maven to Use a Private Repository for SCIP-JAVA
 
 #### Overview
-In Sourcegraph, configuring SCIP-JAVA to use a private Maven repository, such as Nexus or Artifactory, is essential when dependencies should not be retrieved from public repositories. This guide covers steps to set up Maven for SCIP-JAVA indexing with a private repository, ensuring secure and consistent dependency resolution.
+In Sourcegraph, configuring SCIP-JAVA to use a private Maven repository, such as Nexus or Artifactory, is essential when dependencies are retrieved from private repositories that require authentication (as opposed to public repositories such as Maven Central). This guide covers steps to set up Maven for SCIP-JAVA indexing with a private repository, ensuring secure and consistent dependency resolution.
 
 #### Step 1: Testing the Configuration on a Single Repository
 
-To test and validate the Maven configuration, start by modifying a single repository’s auto-indexing settings to include a custom `settings.xml` file.

-   - After configuring the repository, navigate to the "Precise Indexes" tab and click "Enqueue" to start the indexing process.

 #### Step 2: Automating the Configuration Across All Repositories
 
-After verifying the configuration on a single repository, automate the setup across all repositories by modifying the inference configuration using a Lua script.

+
+#### Verifying the Configuration
+
+Once the Lua script is applied, you can verify that the configuration is working by using the **"Preview results"** button in the Lua script editor under the "Inference Configuration" section. This will display the inferred index jobs for your repositories, showing details such as the root directory, indexer, indexer arguments, and environment variables used for each job.
+
+If everything is configured correctly, the dependencies will be pulled from the specified private repository without any issues.
