Google Search Console Integration

Connect your Google Search Console account so your Google search performance sits next to your AI visibility. Asky reads the queries people use to find you, with their clicks, impressions and average positions, and uses them across the platform.

What You Get

WhereWhat Search Console adds
PagesGoogle impressions, clicks and position for each page on your site, next to how often AI answers cite it
KeywordsThe real queries your site already shows up for, with their clicks, impressions and positions
OpportunitiesSearch demand and page performance feed the ranking, so pages that already earn impressions, and queries you nearly win, count for more
Topic suggestionsQueries you already rank for help Asky suggest topics worth tracking

Asky keeps the data current with a daily sync and holds up to 90 days of query history, matching what Search Console shows by default.

Asky only reads your Search Console data. It does not change anything in your Search Console property.

Prerequisites

Before connecting, ensure you have:

  • A Google account
  • Your website verified in Google Search Console 
  • Access to the Search Console property for your site

Verifying Your Site

If you haven’t verified your site in Google Search Console:

Go to Google Search Console

Visit search.google.com/search-console 

Add Property

Click Add property and enter your website URL.

Choose Verification Method

Select a verification method:

  • DNS record (recommended): Add a TXT record to your domain
  • HTML file: Upload a file to your website root
  • HTML tag: Add a meta tag to your homepage
  • Google Analytics: Use existing GA tracking
  • Google Tag Manager: Use existing GTM container

Complete Verification

Follow the instructions for your chosen method and click Verify.

Connecting Google Search Console

In Asky, click your name at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Connections.

Find Google Search Console

Locate the Google Search Console card.

Click Connect

Click the Connect button.

Sign In to Google

You’ll be redirected to Google:

  1. Sign in to your Google account
  2. Select the account that has Search Console access

Authorize Access

Review the permissions Google shows and click Allow.

Complete Setup

You’ll be redirected back to Asky with Google Search Console connected. Asky finds the property that matches your brand’s domain, whether it is a domain property or a URL-prefix property, and syncs its data from then on.

Managing the Connection

Viewing Status

The connection card shows:

  • Connection status (Connected, Expired, Error)
  • Connected Google account
  • Last activity

Disconnecting

To disconnect Google Search Console:

  1. Click your name at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Connections
  2. Find Google Search Console
  3. Click Disconnect
  4. Confirm

Data that was already synced stays in Asky. New data stops arriving until you connect again.

Revoking Access

You can also revoke access from Google:

  1. Go to Google Account Security 
  2. Navigate to Third-party apps with account access
  3. Find Asky and click Remove Access

Troubleshooting

Connection Failed

“Authorization Failed”:

  1. Verify you’re signing into the correct Google account
  2. Check you have Search Console access
  3. Ensure your site is verified in Search Console
  4. Try disconnecting and reconnecting

No Data Showing

  1. Make sure the Google account you connected has access to the property for your brand’s domain
  2. Check that the property has data in Search Console itself. A newly verified property can take a few days to collect any
  3. Wait for the next daily sync after connecting

Token Expired

If connection shows “Expired”:

  1. Click Reconnect
  2. Re-authorize with Google
  3. Connection is restored

Google tokens are refreshed automatically, so manual reconnection is rarely needed.
