Limiting URLs

Coming Soon!

This feature is under development and will be available soon.
To prevent abuse and manage costs, you can limit the number of times a specific URL can be hit within a certain period. This is useful for high-traffic pages or to prevent bots from excessively triggering pixel fires. You can configure limits on a per-URL basis. The following periods are supported:
  • Per day
  • Per month

​
Example Use Cases

  • High-traffic blogs: Limit pixel fires on popular articles to control costs.
  • Landing pages: Prevent scrapers from repeatedly hitting your lead capture pages.
  • Bot prevention: Mitigate automated traffic that could skew your analytics.
