View & query bot verification data in Vercel Observability
By Steven Van ·
Observability Plus subscribers can now query bot name, category, and verification status for Edge Requests at no extra cost.
Vercel's Edge Requests dashboard in Observability now shows verification badges next to bot names, so teams can see at a glance which bots hitting their site are verified. Every request claiming to come from a known bot is cross-checked against Vercel's directory of verified bots and validated against strict criteria.
The query builder for Edge Requests also gains three new dimensions:
- Bot name: identify specific bots
- Bot category: group bots by type
- Bot verified: distinguish between verified, spoofed, and unverifiable bots
All users can view the verification badges. Querying this bot data is included at no extra cost for Observability Plus subscribers. Read more in the announcement.
