Enable or disable a bot route rule

PATCH
/domains/{domain}/rules/bot-route/{ruleId}/toggle
 
curl --request PATCH \
  --url https://api.nsin.ir/domains/example.com/rules/bot-route/1/toggle \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

Flips the rule’s enabled flag. Takes no request body — the new state is always the opposite of the current one, and is returned. Requires rules.edit.

Authorizations

Section titled “Authorizations ”

Parameters

Section titled “ Parameters ”

Path Parameters

Section titled “Path Parameters ”
domain
required
string

The domain name (for example example.com) — not a numeric id.

Example 
example.com
ruleId
required
integer

Numeric id of the rule.

Responses

Section titled “ Responses ”

200

Section titled “200 ”

The rule in its new state.

Media type application/json
object
id
integer
domain_id
integer
record_id

Deprecated single-record scope. Prefer record_ids. Absent for zone-wide rules.

integer
record_ids

The proxied DNS records this rule applies to. Empty or absent means zone-wide — every proxied record of the domain.

Array<integer>
type
string
Allowed values: cache drop redirect rewrite waf captcha rate_limit bot_route origin_pool origin_route fingerprint error_page
enabled
boolean
priority

Evaluation order; lower runs first. Defaults to 100.

integer
host_pattern

Optional hostname filter. Empty means the rule is not host-scoped.

string
host_match_type

How host_pattern is matched. The empty string means “no host filter”, and is the only valid value when host_pattern is empty — the two fields are set and cleared together.

string
Allowed values: "" exact wildcard regex
action_mode
  • enforce — the rule acts (block, redirect, challenge, …).
  • dry_run — the rule matches and is logged as “would have acted”, but the request reaches the origin unchanged. Use it to test a rule safely.

Not every rule type honours this; cache ignores it.

string
Allowed values: enforce dry_run
created_at
string format: date-time
updated_at
string format: date-time
bot_kinds

Which bots this rule matches. Must not be empty.

Array<string>
Allowed values: * gptbot oai-searchbot chatgpt-user claudebot claude-user perplexitybot perplexity-user googlebot google-extended bingbot ccbot bytespider meta-externalagent amazonbot applebot duckduckbot yandexbot ahrefsbot semrushbot mj12bot generic-bot
require_verified

Only match bots whose identity was verified (by reverse DNS or published IP ranges), not merely self-declared in the user agent.

boolean
action
  • block — refuse the request.
  • alt_content — serve body with status instead of the origin.
  • alt_origin — proxy to alt_dest:alt_port over alt_scheme.
  • tag — let it through, but tag it in telemetry.
string
Allowed values: block alt_content alt_origin tag
status

Status code for alt_content.

integer
default: 200
body

Response body for alt_content.

string
alt_dest

Origin address for alt_origin.

string
alt_port

Origin port for alt_origin.

integer
alt_scheme

Scheme used to reach alt_dest.

string
Allowed values: http https
