Orbitr field guide
Google Search Console
Link the Search Console property that exactly matches an Orbitr site and use its search performance as Strategy evidence.
Why the property link matters
Google Search Console supplies clicks, impressions, click-through rate, average position, query, and page evidence. Orbitr accepts that evidence only when the selected Search Console property is linked to the active Orbitr site.
An authenticated Google account alone is not enough. A property for another site fails closed and is not queried as though it belonged to the active site.
Connect and select a property
- Open Integrations in the Orbitr app.
- Choose Connect Google and complete the Google consent screen.
- Return to Orbitr and load the Search Console properties available to that grant.
- Select the property that represents the same site shown in Orbitr.
- Confirm that the integration is linked and healthy before using its metrics.
Domain properties and URL-prefix properties use different identifiers. Select the property shown by Google rather than typing or guessing an identifier.
How Strategy uses the evidence
Search performance is stored as site-scoped evidence. Specialist analysis may identify a ranking or click-through opportunity, but it does not create a customer task directly. The Strategy Agent evaluates the evidence and creates a task only when the scope and expected action are supported.
Permissions and expiry
Orbitr uses read access for Search Console evidence. If Google revokes the grant, the token expires without a usable refresh, the callback expires, or the account loses property access, restart the connection from Orbitr and select the property again. Orbitr does not substitute cached evidence from a different site and does not call Search Console for an unlinked property.
Common failures
- No properties are listed: confirm the Google account has Search Console access, then reconnect.
- Property is not linked: select a property that matches the active Orbitr site.
- Permission, callback, or token error: restart the Google connection from Integrations.
- Metrics are empty: confirm the date range and property, then wait for Search Console data availability.
Site scope is enforced
Do not connect a convenient property for a different domain. Orbitr treats an unlinked property as unavailable evidence.
