what is the other option , I want to detect the known bots by the worker , known bots can be used even in free plan
WAlso verifiedBot means like a search engine crawler and things. Services we know are good bots
SCorrect, and this is what I want , simply to find a way that can detect the known bots (( or verified bots )) by the worker
WYou mentioned VPN though?
WThat doesn't detect VPNs
WThe property is faked for those without BM, reason being was to not break workers using them before it was properly gated
WIIRC it always returns false for those without
Sforget about VPN
SI just want a way to detect if the traffic was from known bots (( VERIFIED BOTS )) or not , what is the way that I can use via worker to do that
IYou can't, as Walshy has said above - without Bot Management which requires an Enterprise contract that property will always return
false
KYou can use verified bot category
KAll plans get that
KIt's like
req.cf.verifiedBotCategory or somethingWIs that meant to be available to all? :p
Sbut WAF rules can detect the known bots (( verified bots )) even with pro plan i think
Swhy its not working with workers?
Srequest.cf.verifiedBotCategory
you mean this will work with all plans
you mean this will work with all plans
KYes
S
Sas per the documant verifiedbots should work with all plans
I"Only set when using Cloudflare Bot Management" which is Enterprise-only.
Sso , can you instruct me how I can write a code or something that can detect known bots or at least (( search engine )) or something
NAn API I'm using requires IP whitelisting for access. I assume I have to pay for some static IP proxy to use it? If so, does anyone have any they could recommend?
HIf you can whitelist IP ranges, then you should be able to use Workers
Ais there a straight forward / established way to handling compressing/optimizing uploaded images with workers?
Aso since sharp doesnt work theres no alternative to compressing when uploading
Aor i guess its not necessary since cf will optimize it on delivery
HNthe original app is on fly.io 
NFixie provides static IP addresses for outbound requests from your application. Fixie supports Heroku, Vercel, Fly.io, Render, and other platforms.
Jre: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/platform/changelog/#2024-04-01, is anyone able to publish a worker importing from 
node:test? I just get Uncaught Error: No such module "node:test". Aim actually surprised theres no straightforward way to handle uploading & compressing images with workers/pages, has nobody made an app that has image uploads?
Aeven client side what are the options?
Ai was hoping for something more like sharp but i guess ill have to stick to that for now
IWith Brotli now being supported in
(mostly asking this in here in case anyone from the runtime team happens to see it)

SHello , which varaiable I can use with cloudflare worker (( pro plan )) to detect its comming from known bots , is request.cf.verifiedBotCategory working with pro plan ???
Sand how I can use if with worker
Sconst botCategory = request.cf.verifiedBotCategory;
if (['search_engine_crawler', 'search_engine_optimization', 'page_preview'].includes(botCategory)) {
return fetch(request);
}
if (['search_engine_crawler', 'search_engine_optimization', 'page_preview'].includes(botCategory)) {
return fetch(request);
}
FHi, I have just joined,
Can I know what is the meaning of "Workers" in the channel name?

Jrequest.cf.botManagement.verifiedBot. I do not know if this is available in pro plans though. Some bot management stuff is only available to enterprise, and the values in request.cf.botManagement are hard-coded
YAny problem with cloudflare ? the workers unbelivably slow.
Yit took 10 secs for 1 request, usually it's less than 1 second
BKind of confused on the Billing panel here - my account says I've had 19 requests this month to date
Meanwhile if I look at my worker's function metrics, I see 798k total requests in that same timeframe. Which one am I being billed on? How is it only 19 requests?

Sconst botCategory = request.cf.verifiedBotCategory;
I am asking about this, is it available in pro plan ?? and how I can use it ?

KHave you tried it?
Syes but I dont know how to try ? how to mention the bot type in the worker code
JDoes anyone know of any resources / examples of using the pages access plugin in a workers project?
Jor otherwise checking authentication for every request..
