Core Capabilities

| Capability | Details | | --- | --- | | Google Search Console sitemap data | Query the google_search_console_sitemaps source through MyBrandMetrics. | | Sitemap status | List sitemap rows for a connected Search Console property. | | Submitted and indexed URLs | Compare contents_submitted and contents_indexed for sitemap health. | | Warnings and errors | Review sitemap warning and error counts. | | Pending processing | Check whether a sitemap row is still pending. | | Last downloaded time | See when Google last downloaded each sitemap. | | Filtered queries | Use metrics, dimensions, filters, and row limits for narrower reports. |

Setup Flow

1. Open https://mybrandmetrics.com/ and sign in with Google.
2. In MyBrandMetrics, open Data sources.
3. Connect Google Search Console as a data source.
4. Wait until the Google Search Console connection is ready.
5. In https://mybrandmetrics.com/, get the MyBrandMetrics API key.
6. Install the clawbus-google-search-console skill.
7. Start a Google Search Console sitemap status workflow with natural-language instructions.

Workflow

Use natural-language prompts after the skill is installed. Include:

• the Google Search Console connection ID, such as sc-domain:example.com;
• whether to list all sitemap rows or focus on a specific sitemap issue;
• the metrics to review, such as warnings, errors, submitted URLs, indexed URLs, and sitemap count;
• the dimensions to group by, such as site URL, sitemap path, content type, last downloaded time, and pending status;
• any filters or row limit needed for the analysis.

Example:

Check the Google Search Console sitemap status for sc-domain:example.com and summarize warnings, errors, submitted URLs, and indexed URLs.

Search-Friendly Workflows

Common Google Search Console sitemap workflows include:

• list Google Search Console sitemap status rows;
• check sitemap warnings and errors;
• compare submitted URLs and indexed URLs;
• find pending sitemap records;
• review sitemap content type and last downloaded time;
• summarize sitemap health for a connected Search Console property.

Use The Script Directly

Use scripts/searchconsole.py.

List sitemap status:

python3 scripts/searchconsole.py \
  --api-key "YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --connection-id "sc-domain:example.com" \
  --limit 200

Use custom metrics and dimensions:

python3 scripts/searchconsole.py \
  --api-key "YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --connection-id "sc-domain:example.com" \
  --metrics "warnings,errors,contents_submitted,contents_indexed" \
  --dimensions "site_url,sitemap_path,content_type,last_downloaded,is_pending" \
  --limit 100

Use an environment variable instead of passing the API key in the command:

export MYBRANDMETRICS_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
python3 scripts/searchconsole.py \
  --connection-id "sc-domain:example.com" \
  --limit 200

Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Purpose | | --- | --- | --- | | --api-key | Yes, unless MYBRANDMETRICS_API_KEY is set | MyBrandMetrics API key. | | --connection-id | Yes | Google Search Console property connection ID, such as sc-domain:example.com. | | --account-id | No | Account ID. Defaults to the connection ID when omitted. | | --metrics | No | Comma-separated sitemap metrics. | | --dimensions | No | Comma-separated sitemap dimensions. | | --filter | No | Filter in field:operator:value format. Repeat for multiple filters. | | --limit | No | Maximum rows to return. Default is 200. | | --compact | No | Print compact JSON instead of indented JSON. |

Available Metrics And Dimensions

Default metrics:

• warnings
• errors
• contents_submitted
• contents_indexed
• sitemaps_count

Default dimensions:

• site_url
• sitemap_path
• content_type
• last_downloaded
• is_pending

Google Search Console data can lag by several days, so new sitemap submissions or recent indexing changes may not appear immediately.
