The Google Search Console connector tools in Optimizely Opal let you access and analyze your site's Google Search performance data directly within Opal, without switching between platforms. Use these tools to inspect URL indexing status, audit submitted sitemaps, query search analytics by keyword, page, device, or country, and submit or resubmit sitemaps to prompt a Google re-crawl. All tools operate on Google Search Console properties that your connected Google account owns and has access to.
Complete the following steps to enable the Google Search Console tools in Opal.
