Indexing API Quickstart

The Indexing API allows site owners to directly notify Google when their job posting or livestreaming video pages are added or removed. This allows Google to schedule pages for a fresh crawl, which can lead to higher quality user traffic. The Indexing API can only be used to crawl pages with either JobPosting or BroadcastEvent embedded in a VideoObject. For websites with many short-lived pages like job postings or livestream videos, the Indexing API keeps content fresh in search results because it allows updates to be pushed individually.

Here are some of the things you can do with the Indexing API:

Sitemaps and the Indexing API: For websites with many short-lived pages like job postings or livestream videos, we recommend using the Indexing API instead of sitemaps because the Indexing API prompts Googlebot to crawl your pages sooner than updating the sitemap. However, we still recommend submitting a sitemap for coverage of your entire site. Get started All submissions through the Indexing API undergo rigorous spam detection. Any attempts to abuse the Indexing API, including the use of multiple accounts or other means to exceed usage quotas, may result in access being revoked. Learn more about our spam policies.

To use the Indexing API, follow these steps:

  1. Complete the prerequisites by enabling the Indexing API, creating a new service account, verifying ownership in Search Console, and getting an access token to authenticate your API call.
  2. Request approval and quota. The Indexing API provides a default 200 quota for API onboarding and submission testing, and it requires additional approval for usage and resource provisioning.
  3. Follow our guidelines.
  4. Send requests to notify Google of new, updated, or deleted web pages.
