Gmail Bot User Agent are not handled as bot

Open Rashmi-Dhanwani opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

We have observed two user agent which are bot or ISP stats but that are not handled by this service

We should include: User-agent: ~ Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/42.0.2311.135 Safari/537.36 Edge/12.246 Gmail-content-sampling (exact match) refer: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63184772/gmail-following-links-gmail-content-sampling ~ via ggpht.com GoogleImageProxy (user agent containing this string) refer: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53080761/multiple-calls-from-via-ggpht-com-googleimageproxy-agent

These are two user agent we are handling separately & discarding them as bot

It shall be included as it is tested that these are bot events by Gmail

Thanks in advance for help!

Hi @mssola

Is there any update?

We are recently getting requests for new user-agents as well for Microsoft which are been doing bot clicks like-

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/79.0.3945.136 Safari/537.36

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/79.0.3945.74 Safari/537.36 Edg/79.0.309.43

Can you pleasee look into it please ?
