Fastly + SKYA: Stream Fastly HTTPS logs to your SKYA webhook and every AI crawler request on the service is counted as it happens, cache hits included.
Overview
Counts how often each AI assistant fetches a page from your site, which URLs they take, and which ones they ask for that no longer exist. Being cited proves an assistant read you. Silence does not say whether it never came or came and chose someone else, and this is what separates the two.
How it works
- 1On your project's AI Crawler page in SKYA, open More ways to send visits, create a webhook key, and open the Fastly setup.
- 2In Fastly, create an HTTPS logging endpoint with the skya.one webhook address, JSON content, newline delimited entries and the log format SKYA gives you. Fastly checks that skya.one accepts its logs, and it does.
- 3Add the header Authorization: Bearer followed by your key, attach the AI crawler condition SKYA gives you, and activate the version. Visits are counted from then on.
Where to find what Fastly asks you for
- SKYA webhook key
- In SKYA, on the project's AI Crawler page, under More ways to send visits, choose Create a key. SKYA shows it once and keeps only a fingerprint.
- Permission it needs: Sent in the Authorization header of every log request. It can only add crawler visits to that one project.
Key benefits
- Real-time streaming, so the record is current rather than daily.
- Nothing to install at the origin, and nothing to maintain after setup.
- A logging condition sends only AI crawler requests, so your ordinary traffic stays in Fastly.
