Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with your sitemap. It seems that the sitemap was throwing a 404 error, but when you refreshed, it was back. This can be a temporary issue, and it’s great to hear that it’s working again.
If you encounter this issue again or if Bing Webmaster Tools prompts the error again, please ensure that the sitemap is correctly configured and accessible. You can also try validating your sitemap using a tool like Validate XML Sitemap to confirm that it’s set up correctly.
Additionally, you can follow the steps mentioned in our knowledgebase article on fixing sitemap issues to ensure that your sitemap is properly configured and accessible.
If you continue to experience issues, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will be happy to assist you further.
