Introducing Bot Actions
We are excited to introduce expanded scanning capabilities in RAMP! Sometimes, websites require steps before accessing their content. You might need to log in, close a banner, etc. Previously, our bots could not perform these steps and, in turn, could not scan the site. However, those days are now in the past — thanks to Bot Actions.
Meet Bot Actions — the new feature in Pro and Pro+ plans that will allow users to scan behind:
- logins (Squarespace, WordPress, etc),
- passwords (Shopify, Netlify, etc),
- cookie banners,
- age restriction modals, and more.
Use Cases and Examples
Bot Actions allow you to set up a sequence to tell our bot how to properly access and set up a page for discovery or scanning.
For example, you may tell our bot:
- “If you redirect to a password page, enter password X and submit the form to proceed.” Or,
- “If you see an age restriction dialog, select 25 years old to enter the website.”
This opens up the ability for RAMP to scan a lot more types of sites with advanced configuration like Shopify, WordPress, etc.
Activate and Set Up
Bot Actions is only available on Pro and Pro+ plans in the page discovery settings.
New Websites – Check the box after the website URL field to indicate advanced configuration is required.
Existing Websites – Select a website from your websites list > RAMP Settings > Page Discovery > Bot Actions.
For advanced set up instructions, visit our user guide article.
