What it is

Amzn-User retrieves a page after a user action in an Amazon AI experience. Aiola classifies it as AI answers because access happens on demand.

In Aiola's taxonomy, AI answers means fetched to answer a user's question now.

User agent

Look for the match token inside the complete HTTP User-Agent header. Tokens can be spoofed, so use the network checks below for authentication.

Official IP ranges

Amazon has not published official IP ranges that Aiola successfully fetched for Amzn-User. Aiola does not list cloud-provider ranges or community guesses as if they authenticated this crawler.

Verify authenticity

Start with the source IP recorded by your trusted edge or server, not an untrusted forwarded header.

Reverse- and forward-DNS double lookup
host REQUEST_IP
# Confirm the hostname ends in an official suffix
host RETURNED_HOSTNAME
# The forward lookup must return REQUEST_IP

For production checks, test against every current prefix in the vendor feed. Re-fetch feeds regularly: a July 2026 snapshot is evidence of publication, not a permanent firewall list.

Control it with robots.txt

Amzn-User is user-triggered. Amazon's controls may differ from automated crawling, so do not assume a robots.txt block is an authentication boundary.

Allow Amzn-User
User-agent: Amzn-User
Allow: /
Block Amzn-User
User-agent: Amzn-User
Disallow: /

Can robots.txt block Amzn-User?
