Response 202: received, key validation pending
IndexNow received your URLs, but has not finished key validation yet. This counts as a success. The engine will check your key file later.
Common causes
- The engine validates the key file asynchronously, after it accepts the request.
- It is the first time IndexNow sees this key for your host.
- The key file could not be fetched at the moment IndexNow tried.
How to fix it
- Keep the key file in place and reachable at its address.
- Check the key file with the key checker.
- Do not resubmit the same URLs right away.
