ChatGPT Search visibility requires OAI-SearchBot access. OAI-SearchBot is used to show sites in search results, while GPTBot is a separate control used for foundation model training. Site owners can allow search while blocking training. WAF should look at not just user-agent but also OpenAI-published IP ranges.
