Key Features and Highlights
This workflow automatically fetches a website's sitemap.xml file, parses all child sitemaps, and extracts and sorts all page URLs along with their last modification dates (lastmod). By leveraging the Google Indexing API, it checks the indexing status of each URL, identifies pages that require updates, and automatically triggers URL update requests to Google, enabling efficient indexing and content updates for the website.
Core Problems Addressed
- Automates handling of multi-level sitemap structures, eliminating the need to manually check URLs one by one.
- Monitors page content updates in real-time to prevent search engine indexing delays.
- Utilizes the Google Indexing API to precisely control URL indexing and updates, enhancing website visibility and ranking in search engines.

- Determines if the page is new or updated (lastmod is later than the last notification time).
- For qualifying pages, triggers a URL update notification via the Google Indexing API.
- Waits randomly between 0.3 to 1.5 seconds after each request to avoid sending requests too rapidly.
