URL Inspection Tool

A Google Search Console tool that reports the index status of a specific URL and why it is or is not indexed.

The URL Inspection tool in Google Search Console reports what Google knows about a single URL: whether it is indexed, when it was last crawled, which canonical Google chose, and any coverage issues. It is the fastest way to diagnose why a specific page is or is not in the index.

It also lets you run a live test against the current page and, if the URL qualifies, request indexing to nudge Google to recrawl. Requesting indexing does not guarantee inclusion — it just adds the URL to a crawl queue.

Use it when a page you expect to rank is missing, or when Search Console flags a URL as excluded. The status it returns — for example "Discovered - currently not indexed" or "Crawled - currently not indexed" — points you toward the actual cause, whether that is content quality, duplication, or crawl budget.

Stop worrying about your sitemap.

Indexly crawls your site, builds the sitemap, hosts it, and keeps it current — automatically.
