How To Provide Access To Google Search Console

If you're providing access to your Google Search Console account, then follow these steps below. There are a few things to know, depending on if you already have an existing property setup in Search Console or not.

If you already have a domain property setup in Search Console

• Log in to Google Search Console
• In the upper left-hand corner of the admin, select the correct domain property that you want to provide access to.
• Then in the left-hand navigation, click on "Settings."
• Now click on "Users and permissions."
• In the upper right-hand corner, click on the button "Add User."
• Enter a valid Google Email Address and select permission (Full is Prefered for Pelican Commerce projects).

If you do NOT have Search Console setup - New Setup

• Log in to Google Search Console
• If you have any domain properties setup, then you will automatically land on one of your existing domains. In the upper left-hand corner of Search Console, click the drop-down menu to display all your domains and then select "Add property."
• If you do NOT already have any domain properties setup, then you will arrive at the same place that clicking on "Add property" would take you.
• On the left-hand side, you'll type in your root domain into the "Domain" area, NOT the URL Prefix area.
• Click the "Continue" button.
• If you are auto verified, then you'll receive a notification saying that you were auto verified and all set. If this is the case, skip ahead.

• When the verify domain ownership via DNS record pops up, click the copy button on the right-hand side.
• Provide this site-verification text to your Pelican Commerce project manager.
• Once Pelican Commerce adds the verification text to your domain name records, you'll return to Google Search Console to click the "Verify" button.
