Robots Exclusion Protocol Extension for URL Level Control

groupnone stateactive pages9 rev03 expires2026-10-20 canonicalhttps://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-illyes-repext/
This document extends RFC9309 by specifying additional URL level controls through an HTTP response header and, for historical reasons, through HTML meta tags originally developed in 1996. Additionally it moves the HTTP response header out of the experimental header space (i.e., "X-") and defines the combinability of multiple headers, which was previously not possible.
