Connecting Search Console
Connect your verified Search Console properties; query reports, low-CTR pages, URL inspection and sitemap operations from chat.
Before you start
The Google consent you gave for Google Ads also covers Search Console; there is no separate connection step. The only requirement is that the connected Google user is a verified owner or full user of the property in Search Console.
Connection
If Google is not connected yet:
- Connections › Google › Connect and approve the consent screen.
- See readable properties and the default one with
list_search_console_sites.
When no property is given the tools use the default one; pass site_url for other sites.

Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| A property is not listed | The connected Google user has no access to that property | Add the user under Search Console › Settings › Users, or connect with the owner account. |
| The report shows the wrong site | The default property is another site | Add site_url to the request: "for the example.com property…". |
