What

Adds a note at the bottom of the Signals Intelligence page clarifying that these fields are analytics-only — available in Security Analytics and Security Events, but not usable as filter fields in WAF custom rule expressions.

Why

Customers browsing the Signals Intelligence field reference assume these fields can be used in WAF custom rules (as other cf.bot_management.* fields can). When they cannot find them in the rule builder, they open support cases. The note sets the expectation clearly at the point of discovery.

Files changed

  • src/content/docs/bots/additional-configurations/ja3-ja4-fingerprint/signals-intelligence.mdx — new note block after the field table and render (+4 lines)

How to verify

Navigate to /bots/additional-configurations/ja3-ja4-fingerprint/signals-intelligence/ and confirm the note appears at the bottom of the page.

Closes DEE-3697
