Hello,
We tested 1 job posting in the Indexing API and we can confirm it shows a success message when you submit or update the URL. However, when we get the status, it returns a 404 status or specifically, the “Requested entity was not found.” error.
If this is the issue you’re referring to, the issue means that the URL was still not processed by the Indexing API from Google. It’s important to note that the requirements for that have changed and now the URLs go through rigorous spam detection.
Besides that, the guidelines now state that this is exclusive to a particular set of websites, so if your website doesn’t fall under that category or is considered spammy the submission will go through but the API will never parse the URLs.
You can check the full guidelines here: https://developers.google.com/search/apis/indexing-api/v3/quickstart
Looking forward to helping you.
