 * Hi there,
    I need to allowlist the following URL:
 * /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php?action=fpd_custom_uplod_file
 * The problem is, that I don´t know how should I do with “Param type” and “Param
   name”. How can I completely allow the /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php URL?
 * Thank you very much and best regards.

 * Hi [@dinol](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dinol/), thanks for your question.
 * Wordfence uses admin-ajax.php itself for certain functions so the entire PHP 
   script should not be blocked by default. However, in the case of a plugin that
   allows file uploading it is entirely possible that this is being flagged as a
   false positive.
 * If you wish to allow it manually in **Wordfence > All Options > Allowlisted URLs**
   then you can set:
 * **URL: **/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
    **Param Type: **Query String **Param Name:**
   fpd_custom_uplod_file
 * Please ensure “uplod” is the correct spelling of the param name there. This kind
   of action can also be allowed by switching Wordfence’s WAF into Learning Mode
   and attemping to perform the upload yourself and teaching Wordfence that the 
   action is normal. You can read more about that here: [https://www.wordfence.com/help/firewall/learning-mode/](https://www.wordfence.com/help/firewall/learning-mode/)
 * Thanks,
 * Peter.
