Title: Web Search Indexing API Error 50-100% – No Indexing After 3 Days
Description:
I used the script, and everything works perfectly. I set it up correctly following the README instructions.
Results from command:

Issue:
In my Google Cloud dashboard, I see the following stats:
API Name | Requests | Errors (%) | Median Latency (ms) | 95% Latency (ms) -- | -- | -- | -- | -- Web Search Indexing API | 66 | 50 | 223 | 478 Google Search Console API | 2 | 0 | 65 | 124- The Web Search Indexing API has a 50% error rate, and at times it jumps to 100% error.
- After waiting 3 days, none of the URLs have been indexed.
- There is no visible activity in my Google Search Console dashboard.
Expected Behavior:
- API should process URLs successfully without high error rates.
- URLs should start appearing in Google Search Console within a reasonable timeframe.
How Can I Fix This?
Is there a way to debug the 50-100% error rate on the Web Search Indexing API? What additional steps should I take to ensure proper indexing?
