Google announced it has suspended, temporarily, the request indexing feature, within the URL inspection tool in Search Console. It didn’t say why, outside of making infrastructure changes. But it comes at a bad time as tons of sites are complaining about indexing issues with Google Search.
Google wrote on Twitter “We have disabled the “Request Indexing” feature of the URL Inspection Tool, in order to make some infrastructure changes. We expect it will return in the coming weeks. We continue to find & index content through our regular methods, as covered here.”
