# Google Search Console

Connect Google Search Console to Sequel with OAuth and ask about clicks, impressions, queries, and pages in natural language.

Connect **Google Search Console (GSC)** to Sequel and ask about your organic search performance — clicks, impressions, average position, top queries, and top pages — in plain English. Pair it with Google Analytics and your product data for a full picture of how search traffic converts.

## What you'll need

- A **Google account** with access to the Search Console property you want to query.
- At least **Restricted** or **Full** user access on that property.

Search Console connects over **OAuth** — authorize Sequel with your Google account and select the property.

## Connect it

<Steps>
<Step title="Open a new connection">
In the Sequel dashboard, go to **Connections → New connection** and choose **Google Search Console**.
</Step>

<Step title="Sign in with Google">
Grant Sequel read access on Google's consent screen.
</Step>

<Step title="Pick a property">
Choose the verified Search Console property (a domain or URL-prefix property) you want to query.
</Step>

<Step title="Confirm">
Sequel verifies access and the connection goes live.
</Step>
</Steps>

<Callout type="info" title="Data freshness">
Search Console data typically lags by a couple of days, and very recent dates may be incomplete. Ask about ranges that end a few days back for stable numbers.
</Callout>

## Try it

- "What were our top 20 search queries by clicks last month?"
- "Which pages gained the most impressions week over week?"
- "What's our average position for branded vs non-branded queries?"
- "Show clicks and CTR by country for the last 28 days."

## Join it with other sources

> "Take our top 20 GSC landing pages by clicks and show how many of those sessions converted, using our Postgres `orders` table."

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Likely fix |
| --- | --- |
| No properties listed | The authorized account lacks access — use one added as a user on the property in Search Console. |
| Recent dates empty | GSC data lags; query a range ending 2–3 days ago. |
| Authorization fails | Re-run the OAuth flow and grant the requested Search Console read scope. |
