(free plan) How to allow my own bot without it getting stopped by captcha

I have a bot that i've made to register users for a mobile app, (using bot because of API restrictions) but the bot gets stopped by the cloudfare captcha, does anyone know how what settings I can change to allow it through in the free plan

I've got the firewall events,
the first time it was botfight.

If your Bot has a static IP, you can allow it with an IP Access Rule.

If not, disable BFM.

one of the other workaround can be making a random header key on the bot, and set allow(skip) rule for that header on WAF.

bot does have static ip,

We've tried allowing access for the IP and a custom user agent, but still pops up with the captcha

BFM off does work, for now we will keep it off, but would appreciate other suggestions to try when its enabled
