• Performance monitoring: Use GOOGLE_SEARCH_CONSOLE_SEARCH_ANALYTICS_QUERY with dimensions: ["date"] over a date range to track daily search performance trends.
• Top queries report: Use GOOGLE_SEARCH_CONSOLE_SEARCH_ANALYTICS_QUERY with dimensions: ["query"] to find the most clicked search terms.
• Page-level analysis: Use dimensions: ["page"] to identify top-performing pages, then dimensions: ["query", "page"] to see which queries drive traffic to each page.
• Indexing audit: Use GOOGLE_SEARCH_CONSOLE_INSPECT_URL to check the indexing status of important pages.
• Sitemap management: Use GOOGLE_SEARCH_CONSOLE_LIST_SITEMAPS to verify submitted sitemaps, then GOOGLE_SEARCH_CONSOLE_SUBMIT_SITEMAP to submit new or updated ones.
