Enter the Bot Name and click on the button Add Bot to save.
Bot Name
The Bot Name is case insensitive. As example: fatbot would be the same as FatBot.
Basic Authentication#
A Basic Authentication is useful to prevent traffic to your site when you don't want to have it public, e.g., during the development of a project or for test/staging environments.
To enable the Basic Authentication, use the switch, enter a User Name and Password, and click on Save.
Cloudflare#
If you use Cloudflare, you should Allow traffic from Cloudflare only that attackers cannot bypass the domain.
Ensure that your DNS Records are Proxied (orange cloud) through the Cloudflare network.
