SC IndexFlow setup guide

Download and install

SC IndexFlow comes in two editions:

• Free — auto-submits new posts to Google.
• Premium (Pro) — adds the live dashboard, real Search Console status, 14-day trend graph, bulk submit, hourly auto-retry and IndexNow.

1. Download the plugin from My Account → Downloads (or the free version from the SC IndexFlow page).
2. In WordPress go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, upload the .zip, then Activate.

Create a Google Cloud project

1. Open console.cloud.google.com and sign in with the Google account that owns your Search Console property.
2. Create a new project (or select an existing one).

Enable the required APIs

In your project go to APIs & Services → Library and enable:

• Web Search Indexing API — required for submitting URLs.
• Google Search Console API — required for Premium index-status checks.

Create a service account and JSON key

1. Go to APIs & Services → Credentials → Create Credentials → Service Account and create it (any name).
2. Open the new service account, go to the Keys tab and choose Add Key → Create New Key → JSON.
3. A .json file downloads to your computer — keep it private.

Add the service account to Search Console

1. Open the JSON file and copy the client_email value.
2. In Google Search Console open your property → Settings → Users and permissions → Add User.
3. Paste the email and set permission to Owner.

Connect the plugin

1. In WordPress open the plugin’s settings page.
2. Paste the full contents of the JSON file into Service Account JSON.
3. Premium only: enter your Search Console Property URL exactly as it appears in Search Console (e.g. https://example.com/ or sc-domain:example.com).
4. Click Save Settings (free version: then Test Connection).

From now on every new post is submitted automatically when you publish it.

Activate Premium (Pro)

1. Copy your key from My Account → License keys.
2. Paste it into the License box on the plugin page and click Activate License.

The live dashboard (Total Submitted, Indexed, Not Indexed, New Indexed vs Yesterday) and the 14-day trend graph unlock instantly.

Submit and track your existing posts

• Submit All Existing Posts — sends your whole archive in one go.
• Check Now / Check All Now — fetch the real index status from Search Console.
• Resubmit — send a failed URL again (Premium also retries failures hourly).
• Export CSV — download your submission log.
