    So, I want to remove the instant indexing plugin from my website.

    I added it by following the process mentioned below.

    Apart from removing the plugin, do I need to disable the user permission from the search console?

    You will understand what I am talking about if you check the URL above. It shows that you need to add some permission to a new user on the Search console. If you did not, please let me know.

    Also, let me know if there are any other steps required for the instant indexing plugin to be removed from my website.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math support.

    No, you do not need to disable or remove the permission of your service address. That can be useful to you later. Removing just the Instant Indexing addon plugin will stop the automatic and manual submission of your post to the Google Indexing API.

    We hope this helps clarify the issue. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us again.

    Will there be an issue if I remove the service permission from the search console?

    Hello,

    Yes, it will cause our Analytics module to not work properly including the auto-submission of sitemaps. However, if you are not using any Analytics-related feature, then you can go ahead and disable those permissions.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need my assistance with anything else.

    I use GA4 and nothing don’t use nothing related to RankMath Analytics. It’s not even connected.

    Now tell me, will there be an issue if I remove the user from Google Search Console?

    Hello,

    No, there wouldn’t be an issue since you mentioned you’re not using Rank Math’s Analytics feature.

    If your site is not connected to your Google account using Rank Math, then it is safe to remove/disable the permission.

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you.
