Is this normal edge function usage?

Hi, I have a Next.js app deployed on vercel. Even with 0 active users on certain days I'm still getting 700 or so edge requests per day which seems way too high for 0 activity.

Is this normal?

I know auth on my app is pretty messed up (if you tab out and immediately back, the app requires a refresh or it will load infinitely. Using Google for auth.

The back end is supabase and over the last 24 hours the API has only had 12 requests.

On the day I had 10 users test the app for an evening there were 2400 edge requests.

Any ideas on this usage pattern? Thanks.

Bots are probing every conceivable exposed server and domain for vulnerabilities. They are a significant source of traffic and requests.
This is an example of a server of mine that occasionally receives these malicious requests.

I see. My graph is more of a consistent level every day rather than a spike. These days in the graph, I had no one using the app.

You don't know if nobody used the app. You need check your access logs for that.
