The Google Schema Markup Testing Tool bot, now part of the Rich Results Test, crawls pages to validate their structured data. This helps webmasters check if their schema markup is correctly implemented for Google Search.

How Centinel checks it

User agent: The request calls itself this crawler. Anyone can send the same string.

Google Schema Markup Testing Tool publishes nothing Centinel can check a source against, so a match reports the name and leaves the source unconfirmed. The match tokens, verification domains, and address feeds are not published here.

Allowing or blocking it

The crawler object in the /validate response sets access_allowed to true only for a verified source that your tenant allowlists. A policy rule can allow or block this crawler by its category, Monitoring.
