For further information on allowing or denying these web crawlers, see the Creating and Managing Zephr Features topic.

Specify the maximum number of sessions that a user can have at one time from Number of Sessions.

You can define a decision based on a specific time and date, for example, after 12:00 PM 2023/08/01, or a time in a day, like after 12:00 PM every day.
