If it is deep use a wood filler the colour of the boards. If it is fine - coloured Crayon will do the trick

I've used a broken walnut piece, it worked for me. Rub it on the scratch and wow, it hides and minimizes the scratch. I am assuming it a small scratch. Mine was about 1" long. Don't know about bigger scratches. Good luck.

I concur with the crayon idea. It's wax...it will settle in between the grooves

Small cuts and scratches can be permanently fused with liquid seam sealer, a clear compound that's available wherever vinyl flooring is sold. Clean the area with a soft cloth that's dipped in lacquer thinner, then squeeze in a thin bead of sealer. After the sealer has dried, the repair will be virtually invisible.
