Google Docs
Google Docs is assigned to the Office category by BotScope. Detection is based on the user-agent string. Current pattern:
GoogleDocs
Triggered when a user embeds your URL in a Google Doc — e.g. via =IMPORTDATA() in Sheets or as an embed in Docs. A hit signals that your content is referenced in someone else's document.
Office apps (Microsoft Office, LibreOffice, Google Docs) fetch linked images, data or previews from documents — when a user embeds a link in Excel or a table in Word, the app calls your site.
BotScope maps Google Docs requests onto your session timeline — you spot bursts, can filter them per path, and compare against other bots in the same category.
