Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and bringing your concern to our attention.
In order to get the status, you’ll have to Publish/update the URL first:
If you still get the 404 error it means that the URLs are not in the Indexing API. Since the API is only for two types of websites (job posting and live streams) and goes through rigorous spam detection due to recent changes in Google, it’s much more difficult to get URLs into the API.
So, unless you have one of the website types we mentioned and the content is unique, you won’t be able to use this feature consistently and you shouldn’t as the API was never intended for it as mentioned in our own documentation.
Please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
