Upgrading from Sitecore XP 9.1.1 or earlier

Version: 10.5
Important

If you are upgrading from Sitecore XP 9.1.1 or earlier, you must perform the steps in this section.

To update the Sitecore.Analytics.ExcludeRobots.config file:

  • In the website\App_Config\Sitecore\Marketing.Tracking\Sitecore.Analytics.ExcludeRobots.config file, in the <excludedUserAgents> node, remove the user agents.

Sitecore XP uses the device detection component to identify robots and the user agents listed here are detected as robots.

If you have added user agents to the list, you can check whether each user agent is a known robot at https://51degrees.com/resources/user-agent-tester. If the user agent is a robot, you can safely remove it from the list.
