Oracle Commerce Cloud Service - Version 22.2.10 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Goal

Allow robots to crawl into sites containing a Disallowed word. 

CUSTOMER'S QUESTION:
----------------------

A URL path with brand name is not being crawled by robots, it's being blocked by a partial match in the robots.txt, how can we prevent this?

Is there a way to the robots.txt file to be based on exact match instead of contains logic so that it will allow us to crawl the brand names currently being blocked?
