Bevor Anfragen an die Indexing API gesendet werden können, musst du Google über deinen Client informieren und den Zugriff auf die API aktivieren. Verwende dazu die Google API Console, um ein Projekt zu erstellen und um deine Anwendung zu registrieren. Bei einem Projekt handelt es sich um eine mit einem Namen versehene Sammlung von Einstellungen und Informationen zum API-Zugriff.
Damit du die Indexing API verwenden kannst, musst du zuerst mithilfe des Einrichtungstools ein Projekt in der Google API Console erstellen. Dadurch wird die API aktiviert und Anmeldedaten erzeugt.
Dienstkonto erstellen
Öffne die Seite Dienstkonten. Wähle ein Projekt aus, wenn du dazu aufgefordert wirst.
Klicke auf addDienstkonto erstellen und gib einen Namen und eine Beschreibung für das Dienstkonto ein. Du kannst die standardmäßige Dienstkonto-ID verwenden oder eine andere eindeutige ID auswählen. Wenn du fertig bist, klicke auf Erstellen.
Für den folgenden Abschnitt Dienstkontoberechtigungen (optional) sind keine Maßnahmen erforderlich. Klicke auf Weiter.
Scrolle auf dem Bildschirm Nutzern Zugriff auf dieses Dienstkonto erteilen nach unten zum Abschnitt Schlüssel erstellen. Klicke auf addSchlüssel erstellen.
Wähle in der angezeigten Seitenleiste das Format für deinen Schlüssel aus. Empfohlen wird JSON.
Klicken Sie auf Erstellen. Dein neues öffentliches/privates Schlüsselpaar wird generiert und auf deinen Computer heruntergeladen. Dies ist die einzige Kopie dieses Schlüssels. Informationen dazu, wie du den Schlüssel sicher speicherst, findest du unter Dienstkontoschlüssel verwalten.
Klicke im Dialogfeld Privater Schlüssel auf deinem Computer gespeichert auf Schließen und dann auf Fertig, um zur Tabelle deiner Dienstkonten zurückzukehren.
Dienstkonto als Websiteinhaber hinzufügen
So fügst du dein Dienstkonto als Websiteinhaber hinzu:
Bestätige zuerst in der Search Console, dass du der Inhaber der Website bist, und
füge dann dein Dienstkonto als Inhaber hinzu.
1. Bestätigen, dass du der Inhaber der Website bist
In der Search Console kannst du die Inhaberschaft der Website bestätigen.
Dort werden verschiedene Bestätigungsmethoden unterstützt. Du kannst entweder eine Domain-Property (example.com) oder eine URL-Präfix-Property (https://example.com oder https://example.com/some/path/) für deine Website erstellen. Beachte, dass Websites in der Search Console Properties genannt werden.
2. Deinem Dienstkonto Inhaberstatus geben
Füge dein Dienstkonto als Nächstes als (delegierten) Websiteinhaber hinzu:
Klicke auf die Property, für die du die Inhaberschaft bestätigt hast.
Klicke in der Liste Bestätigter Inhaber auf Inhaber hinzufügen.
Gib die E-Mail-Adresse deines Dienstkontos als delegierten Inhaber an. Du kannst die E-Mail-Adresse deines Dienstkontos an zwei Stellen finden:
Im Feld client_email im privaten JSON-Schlüssel, den du beim Erstellen deines Projekts heruntergeladen hast.
In der Spalte Dienstkonto-ID der Ansicht „Dienstkonten“ in der Google Cloud Console.
Die E-Mail-Adresse hat folgendes Format: my-service-account@project-name.google.com.iam.gserviceaccount.com Beispiel: mein-dienstkonto@testprojekt-42.google.com.iam.gserviceaccount.com
Zugriffstoken anfordern
Jeder Aufruf an die Indexing API muss mit einem OAuth-Token authentifiziert werden. Diesen erhältst du im Austausch gegen deinen privaten Schlüssel. Jedes Token ist eine bestimmte Zeit lang gültig.
Google bietet API-Clientbibliotheken an, über die OAuth-Tokens für unterschiedliche Sprachen angefordert werden können.
Voraussetzungen
Anfragen an die Indexing API müssen folgende Voraussetzungen erfüllen:
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/indexing wird als Bereich verwendet.
Einer der unter API verwenden beschriebenen Endpunkte muss verwendet werden.

You do this by using the Google API Console to create a project,\nwhich is a named collection of settings and API access information, and register your application.\n\nTo get started using Indexing API, you need to first\n[use\nthe setup tool](https://console.cloud.google.com/start/api?id=indexing.googleapis.com&credential=client_key), which guides you through creating a project in the\nGoogle API Console, enabling the API, and creating credentials.\n\nCreate a service account\n\n1. Open the [**Service accounts** page](https://console.cloud.google.com/iam-admin/serviceaccounts). If prompted, select a project.\n2. Click add **Create Service Account** , enter a name and description for the service account. You can use the default service account ID, or choose a different, unique one. When done click **Create**.\n3. The **Service account permissions (optional)** section that follows is not required. Click **Continue**.\n4. On the **Grant users access to this service account** screen, scroll down to the **Create key** section. Click add **Create key**.\n5. In the side panel that appears, select the format for your key: **JSON** is recommended.\n6. Click **Create** . Your new public/private key pair is generated and downloaded to your machine; it serves as the only copy of this key. For information on how to store it securely, see [Managing service account keys](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/understanding-service-accounts#managing_service_account_keys).\n7. Click **Close** on the **Private key saved to your computer** dialog, then click **Done** to return to the table of your service accounts.\n\nAdd your service account as a site owner\n\n\nTo add your service account as a site owner:\n\n1. First prove that you own the site, using Search Console, then\n2. Add your service account as an owner.\n\n1. Prove that you own the site\n\n\n[Verify ownership of your site](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9008080)\nusing Search Console.\nYou can use any verification method supported by Search Console. You can create either\na Domain property (`example.com`) or a URL-prefix property (`https://example.com`\nor `https://example.com/some/path/`) to represent your site (note that sites are called\n*properties* in Search Console).\n\n2. Grant owner status to your service account\n\nNext, add your service account as a\n([delegated](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7687615#permissions-section))\nsite owner:\n\n1. Open [Search Console](https://www.google.com/webmasters/verification/home).\n2. Click the property for which you verified ownership.\n3. In the **Verified owner** list, click **Add an owner**.\n4. Provide your service account email as the delegated owner. You can find your service account email address in two places:\n - The `client_email` field in the JSON private key that you downloaded when you [created your project](#create-project).\n - The **Service account ID** column of the Service Accounts view in the Google Cloud console.\n\n The email address has a format like this: \n \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003emy-service-account\u003c/var\u003e`@`\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eproject-name\u003c/var\u003e`.google.com.iam.gserviceaccount.com` \n **For example:** my-service-account@test-project-42.google.com.iam.gserviceaccount.com\n\nGet an access token\n\nEvery call to the Indexing API must be authenticated with an OAuth token that you get\nin exchange for your private key. Each token is good for a span of time.\nGoogle provides [API client libraries](/api-client-library)\nto get OAuth tokens for a number of languages.\n\nRequirements\n\nWhen submitting a request to the Indexing API, your request must:\n\n1. Use `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/indexing` as the scope.\n2. Use one of the endpoints described in [Using the API](/search/apis/indexing-api/v3/using-api).\n3. Include the [service account access token](#create-service-account).\n4. Define the body of the request as described in [Using the API](/search/apis/indexing-api/v3/using-api).\n\nExamples\n\nThe following examples show how to obtain an OAuth access token: \n\nPython\n\nObtains an OAuth token using the [Google API Client library for Python](/api-client-library/python): \n\n```python\nfrom oauth2client.service_account import ServiceAccountCredentials\nimport httplib2\n\nSCOPES = [ \"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/indexing\" ]\nENDPOINT = \"https://indexing.googleapis.com/v3/urlNotifications:publish\"\n\n# service_account_file.json is the private key that you created for your service account.\nJSON_KEY_FILE = \"service_account_file.json\"\n\ncredentials = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name(JSON_KEY_FILE, scopes=SCOPES)\n\nhttp = credentials.authorize(httplib2.Http())\n\n# Define contents here as a JSON string.\n# This example shows a simple update request.\n# Other types of requests are described in the next step.\n\ncontent = \"\"\"{\n \\\"url\\\": \\\"http://example.com/jobs/42\\\",\n \\\"type\\\": \\\"URL_UPDATED\\\"\n}\"\"\"\n\nresponse, content = http.request(ENDPOINT, method=\"POST\", body=content)\n```\n\nJava\n\nObtains an OAuth token using the [API Client Library for Java](/api-client-library/java): \n\n```java\nString scopes = \"https://www.googleapis.com/auth/indexing\";\nString endPoint = \"https://indexing.googleapis.com/v3/urlNotifications:publish\";\n\nJsonFactory jsonFactory = new JacksonFactory();\n\n// service_account_file.json is the private key that you created for your service account.\nInputStream in = IOUtils.toInputStream(\"service_account_file.json\");\n\nGoogleCredential credentials =\n GoogleCredential.fromStream(in, this.httpTransport, jsonFactory).createScoped(Collections.singleton(scopes));\n\nGenericUrl genericUrl = new GenericUrl(endPoint);\nHttpRequestFactory requestFactory = this.httpTransport.createRequestFactory();\n\n// Define content here.
