- Use the Google account that owns or has full access to the Search Console property.
- Ensure your site is verified in Google Search Console first.
- If using a URL-prefix property, make sure the URL matches exactly (including https vs http).
Data Not Showing
- GSC data has a 2–3 day processing delay. New connections need 24–48 hours.
- Very new sites (<1 week old) may not have enough data yet.
