# How to connect Google Search Console

> OAuth-connect your Google Search Console and pick the verified property on the Features tab under Settings.

Connect GSC once per account on the Features tab under Settings (`settings/features`): click Connect
Google Account, complete OAuth for the Google account that owns your verified property, then pick
the exact property (domain or URL-prefix) from the Search Console property dropdown and click Test
connection. If a property shows "(no data access)", reconnect with the account that actually owns it.
GSC feeds keyword decisions and the [monthly performance review](/platform/performance-review) (see
[Part 1 §1.10 Attribution](/theory/attribution)).

## Steps

1. Go to the Features tab under Settings (`settings/features`) and find the Google Search Console card.
2. Click **Connect Google Account** and complete the Google OAuth consent for the Google account that owns your property.
3. Under **Search Console property**, pick the verified property from the dropdown. URL-prefix properties work here too, alongside domain (`sc-domain:`) properties.
4. If the property isn't listed, use **Enter manually** (`https://example.com/` or `sc-domain:example.com`) and **Save property**.
5. Click **Test connection** to confirm data is flowing.
6. Optionally leave **Auto-check on publish** on so newly published URLs are queued for an index check automatically.

> A property shown as "(no data access)" means that Google account can't query it, so reconnect with
> the account that actually owns the property. If you skip the picker, the app derives a default
> property from the organization URL, but picking the exact verified property is safer.

> 🎬 **Video planned:** start the GSC connect, complete OAuth, select the property (incl. URL-prefix),
> confirm data flowing. See the shot-list.
