Hello,
I just changed your API key and it’s working fine now.
Please let us know when you experience the issue again.
Thank you for choosing Rank Math
But the pages are not indexing I also tried changing the API key before reaching out to you but it was successful for some time and the issue is same after some time also posts are not indexing
Here is search console screenshot for your reference
As I told you issue is the same after some time so the issue is the same in just 20 minutes
Hello,
Attempting to troubleshoot your plugins is causing a site error, so we were unable to test for a plugin conflict.
Please perform the test yourself. You can do this by deactivating all your plugins and activating a WordPress default theme, then try using the IndexNow API again to see if the error persists. You can use loom.com to do a screen record of the process.
Regarding your previous response, please note that the IndexNow API is used for sending your URLs to Bing and Yahoo. To submit to the Google API, you have to select Google when manually submitting a URL using the Instant Index console or set up the Google API settings to automatically send your posts to Google API.
Looking at your settings, we can see that you have already set up the Google API and we can confirm that it is working fine.
The 403 error is only happening to the IndexNow API for Bing and Yahoo. But please note that submitting a URL to any of the APIs does not guarantee the post will be indexed instantly – although that is the case for the majority of the case, we should also clarify that Google, Bing, and Yahoo can decide not to crawl or index your URL for any reason, but when they do, they’ll let you know why.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. We are looking forward to hearing back from you.
