AI Crawl Control - Advanced WAF customization
AI Crawl Control now allows users to extend the underlying WAF rule with custom modifications such as path-based exceptions and extra user agents, with changes preserved when updating crawler actions. A warning banner alerts users if the rule expression has been modified beyond AI Crawl Control's parsing capabilities.
AI Crawl Control now supports extending the underlying WAF rule with custom modifications. Any changes you make directly in the WAF custom rules editor — such as adding path-based exceptions, extra user agents, or additional expression clauses — are preserved when you update crawler actions in AI Crawl Control.
If the WAF rule expression has been modified in a way AI Crawl Control cannot parse, a warning banner appears on the Crawlers page with a link to view the rule directly in WAF.
For more information, refer to WAF rule management.
