What is Sanity Webhooks?

Sanity Webhooks is Sanity's webhook service. Sanity's webhook service that delivers real-time event notifications for content changes and other events.

Sanity Webhooks is part of an event-delivery pipeline rather than an AI crawler, so it has little direct bearing on AI search. Knowing its signature still helps you separate legitimate callbacks from unexpected automated traffic in your logs.

Like any automated client, Sanity Webhooks consumes crawl budget and appears in your server and CDN logs. Reviewing those logs alongside your robots.txt rules helps you keep automated traffic deliberate and easy to reason about.

Want to see every AI bot hitting your site? Promptwatch turns your server and CDN logs into a live view of AI crawler and agent traffic, so you can watch ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and others crawl your pages and connect those visits to real citations and revenue.

How to handle Sanity Webhooks

Whether to allow Sanity Webhooks depends on whether you rely on the service behind it. Use a robots.txt rule to allow or disallow it.

To control Sanity Webhooks, add a rule for its user agent to your robots.txt:

User-agent: SanityWebhooks
Disallow: /

Replace the user-agent token above with the exact string Sanity Webhooks sends, check the operator's documentation, since display names and user-agent tokens can differ.

Sanity Webhooks generally honors robots.txt directives.

Examples
