Verifying Bingbot

The user agent string bingbot can be faked by anyone, and scrapers often pretend to be well-known bots to get past rate limits. Before you treat a request as Bingbot:

Check that the request IP is inside one of the prefixes above (the checker on this page does exactly that).
Load the list from the official source on a schedule; do not hard-code it.
Allow the verified bot in your firewall or bot protection, and rate-limit or challenge requests that only claim to be it.

Frequently asked questions

What are the IP ranges of Bingbot?

Bingbot publishes 28 IPv4 and 0 IPv6 prefixes (4,736 IPv4 addresses in total) in its official list at https://www.bing.com/toolbox/bingbot.json. This page shows the current list and refreshes it from the source every 6 hours.

How do I verify that a request really comes from Bingbot?

Anyone can send the user agent bingbot. Check that the IP address of the request is in the official list (use the checker on this page), or do a reverse DNS lookup followed by a forward lookup as described in the official documentation.

How often do the Bingbot IP ranges change?

Providers add and remove ranges regularly, sometimes several times a week. Do not hard-code the list: load it from the official source (or this page's JSON) on a schedule, for example daily.

How do I allow only Bingbot in nginx?

Download the nginx format on this page and include it in a location block: one 'allow' line per prefix followed by 'deny all;'. Regenerate the file regularly, because the list changes.
