Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Please note that there is nothing we can do when IndexNow returns the 202 status code. As we already mentioned, the 202 status means Rank Math has successfully submitted your URL to the IndexNow API but the API key will be checked later.
Unfortunately, there is no fixed/estimated time for this as it’s up to Bing if they verify it right away.
Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you.
