The Google Search Console integration links a Search Console property to your project. Open it from Integrations, in the Google section, by clicking the Google Search Console card. The page has three tabs: Sitemaps, Search Performance and URL Inspection. The same connection also feeds the Site Audit and the AI agent.

Before you start

  • You need a Google account with access to the site in Search Console. Domain properties (sc-domain:example.com) and URL-prefix properties (https://example.com/) both work.
  • Owners, Admins and Members can connect and change the integration. Viewers can read the data.
Connecting doesn’t change the Google account you use to log in to ChatFeatured.

Connect

1

Sign in with Google

Click Connect Google Search Console, choose the Google account that can see your property, and allow the requested permissions.
2

Check the property

ChatFeatured picks the property that matches your project’s domain. If it can’t, choose one from the Brand Domain dropdown. The choice saves as soon as you make it.
The three tabs appear once a property is selected. If the dropdown shows No properties found, the Google account you connected can’t see any Search Console property. Get access in Search Console, then click Refresh. Data is read from Google when you open a tab, so it’s available as soon as a property is selected.

Sitemaps

Submitted Sitemaps lists the sitemaps Google has for the property, with when they were submitted and last read, the number of URLs, and a status. To submit one, enter its URL under Submit New Sitemap and click Submit Sitemap. Add another lets you send several at once.

Search Performance

Shows clicks, impressions, CTR and average position from Google Search.
  • Switch between Pages and Queries.
  • Pick a period: 24 hours, 7 days, 28 days or 3 months. Search Console data lags by about two days.
  • Click a row to see the queries that sent a page traffic, or the pages that ranked for a query.
  • In the Pages view, the search icon on a row opens that URL in URL Inspection.

URL Inspection

Enter a full URL and click Inspect. The result shows Google’s verdict, coverage and indexing state, whether robots.txt allows crawling, the last crawl time, and the canonical Google chose next to the one your page declares. View in Google Search Console opens Google’s full report. Results are cached for 24 hours; click Refresh for a fresh inspection.

Where else the data shows up

  • Site Audit. A page’s detail view shows its Search Console clicks, impressions and queries, and the Site Explorer adds an Index column (Indexed or Not indexed). See Site Audit.
  • AI agent. The agent can read your Search Console data in chat.

Reconnect or disconnect

Both buttons are under Manage Connection. Reconnect runs the Google sign-in again. Disconnect removes the connection.

Troubleshooting

Google stopped accepting the saved sign-in, for example because access was revoked in your Google account. Click Reconnect under Manage Connection.
You unticked the Search Console permission on Google’s consent screen. Click Reconnect and allow all requested permissions.
The connected Google account can’t read that property, or the URL you inspected is outside it. A URL-prefix property only covers URLs under its exact prefix. Check the property in the Brand Domain dropdown, or get access to it in Search Console.
