In the next screen, enter a project name that you can recognize later. And then click Create.

2. Enable Access to the Indexing API in your new project

Once you create the project, you need to give the project access the Google Indexing API. In the next step, you'll see a screen as shown below. Confirm if the selected project is the one that just created, otherwise use the drop-down at the top to change the project. Once you’ve selected the project click Next.

In the next step, click the Enable button to give the project to access the Google Indexing API.

Once you’ve enabled it, you can close this tab.

3. Create a Google Cloud Service Account

We will use this Service Account and JSON API Key across all of your websites; just make sure that the Service Account is added as Owner for all the sites in the Search Console.
