Forward logs from WordPress via the Promptwatch plugin

The plugin only sees requests that reach WordPress itself. Page cache plugins and host CDNs answer most requests before WordPress runs, so this setup captures only part of your crawler traffic. For complete coverage, use a CDN-level integration such as Cloudflare Workers instead.
The Promptwatch plugin for WordPress forwards the public requests that do reach WordPress to Promptwatch. The same plugin also handles content publishing and visitor analytics, so one setup covers everything. See the WordPress integration docs for the full plugin setup.

​
Step 1: Install and connect the plugin

  1. In wp-admin, go to Plugins → Add New and search for Promptwatch, then install and activate the plugin.
  2. Open Settings → Promptwatch and copy your site URL and sync token.
  3. In Promptwatch, open CMS integrations and paste the site URL and sync token to connect your site.

​
Step 2: Enable crawler log forwarding

  1. Create an API key in Promptwatch under Settings → API Keys (see Create an API Key).
  2. In wp-admin, open Settings → Promptwatch and scroll to Crawler logs.
  3. Paste the API key, check Enable crawler log forwarding, and click Save crawler logs.
Crawler logs start appearing in Promptwatch within a few minutes. Use Debug crawler logs in the plugin settings to check the send queue.
