Auto-detect Zapier requests in Jetpack Protect #14078

Open

Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I’ve been running into repeated issues with blocked IP addresses when using Zapier, which is a tool I frequently use to automate tasks like uploading posts and images to our self-hosted site. As explained here, Zapier uses a range of IP addresses every time it launches a new task: https://zapier.com/help/troubleshoot/behavior/cant-access-or-use-zapier-with-other-apps

Describe the solution you'd like

I’d like to see Jetpack Protect auto-detect the use of IP addresses from Zapier, potentially through an upgraded integration.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I’ve looked into blocking IP addresses, but the range it uses is too broad. I could use Cloudflare to block login attempts instead.

Additional context

Here’s a screenshot of the error I receive in Zapier when this error arises:
