Download numbers on crates.io too high?
3 projects | /r/rust | 31 May 2023

If the crates.io team wanted to go further they could employ some invasive methods to detect bots (usually it involves a JS library that does fingerprinting on the browser - something like BotD), but I'm not advocating for it. I don't think crates.io should collect more data, they should just perform better statistics on the data they already have.

I can't help after the fact but Botd is a great tool to validate the client for an automated script: https://github.com/fingerprintjs/BotD
Bot traffic following activation of Google Ads?

Since this is direct traffic and unrelated to click fraud, it might make sense to give fingerprint a try.

Work on getting better at detecting and isolating synthetic traffic. Use a layered approach that combines fingerprinting (botd is a decent place to start) and ip address intelligence (i've had success using the ipinfo.io proxy/vpn detection solution).

Build a Bot with Low Code approach..!
1 project | dev.to | 7 Apr 2021

The Bot Framework Composer allows us to build a Conversational AI based chatbots using Low code approach where the user can open the Bot Framework Composer application and start building the bot by defining the triggers, dialogs and other advanced features available in Composer. Along with these features Bot Framework Composer allows us to integrate Azure Cognitive Services such as LUIS, QnA Maker as well as our own custom microservices. Now, lets see how we are going to build a bot by integrating with our custom microservice which is available on Azure App Service.
Integrate your No-Code Power Virtual Agents with Low-Code Bot Framework Composer

As I knew (from Ignite 2020), this was coming so I started playing with stuff when it was in a Preview. The fantastic Bot Framework Composer team has always been responsive, super supportive and patient with me. Eventually, when I got this working, I thought to write a step by step guide for you to get yourself started!
