    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math for help with removing a URL with query parameters from the Yandex index.

    You do not need to take any action as Rank Math automatically adds a canonical URL to every page with query parameters which tells the search engine not to index URLs with the query parameter. You may refer to the following article on how Yandex handles canonical URLs: https://yandex.com/support/webmaster/robot-workings/canonical.html

    If you would like to prevent Yandex from crawling URLs with a ‘?’ in them, you can add the following rule to your robots.txt. 

    
User-agent: Yandex
Disallow: /*?

    Please note, disallowing indexing of all query parameters is risky as there may be some you want to be crawled and indexed.

    You may refer to this guide for how to edit robots.txt: https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-edit-robots-txt-with-rank-math/

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.
