Filtering LogAnalyzer Reports by Bot Type

πŸ“˜ This article describes filtering LogAnalzyer reports to show activity for specific bot types. LogAnalzyer, part of Botify's Analytics Suite, is available with all Botify plans.

Overview

Viewing your log data by a specific bot type (i.e., user agent) can be beneficial. There are a few methods for filtering LogAnalyzer reports by specific bot.

Filtering Visualizations

If your Botify plan includes multiple bots, select the bot name from the dropdown list at the top of LogAnalyzer reports to filter all LogAnalyzer reports globally:

Within visualizations that include a bot filter, select the desired bot type from the dropdown list:

For visualizations that depict bot activity but do not have a bot filter, all user agents are shown, as in the following example that shows all Google bots:
