The\n domain owner can approve the association request through the Google Search\n console.\n | **Note:** If the domain owner is not found in Google Search, you must reach out to the domain owner yourself and use the domain ownership verification method to verify the domain.\n- **Domain ownership verification**: to verify the domain in the following\n cases:\n\n - When you're the domain owner of the specified domain\n - When you can contact the domain owner for verification through the Google Search console\n - When you have access to the Google Search console to verify the domain\n\n Domain ownership is the ownership of the domain to which your URL patterns\n belong. This is different from being the owner of a Google Cloud project, which is\n an Identity and Access Management (IAM) role.\n\nWhen you turn on advanced website indexing to create a data store, you can\nverify the domain for the websites you are indexing after\ncreating the data store. If you don't verify your domain ownership, your website\ncan't be indexed using advanced website indexing.\n\nDomain verification behavior\n----------------------------\n\nUnderstand the following domain-verification behavior:\n\n- When you verify the domains for your URL patterns, you are verifying the entire domain.\n For example, suppose if you verify the domain for `www.mysite.com/abc` and later add\n `www.mysite.com/def` to your data store, you won't need to verify the domain\n for `www.mysite.com/def`. This is because `www.mysite.com/def`\n is within the domain `mysite.com`, which is already verified.\n\n- When you verify a domain, that domain is automatically verified\n for all data stores in that project. This persists even if in the future you\n no longer own the domain.\n\nIf you encounter challenges verifying your domain ownership, contact your\ncustomer engineer (CE) or Google account team. After verifying that your\norganization owns the specified domains, the CE or your Google account team\nsubmit a domain-verification exemption request to unblock you.\n\nVerify your domains\n-------------------\n\nWhen you create a data store specifying the URL patterns for advanced website indexing, you must verify the domains in the data store. You\ncan verify any time and the advanced website indexing is activated only after\nthe domain verification.\n\nTo verify the domains specified in a data store with\n[advanced website indexing](/generative-ai-app-builder/docs/about-advanced-features#advanced-website-indexing) using the\nGoogle Cloud console, follow these steps:\n\n1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the **AI Applications** page.\n\n [AI Applications](https://console.cloud.google.com/gen-app-builder/start)\n2. In the navigation menu, click **Data Stores**.\n\n3. Click the name of the data store with websites for which you want to enable\n advanced website indexing.\n\n4. In the navigation menu, select **Data**.\n\n5. From the **Website** tab, click **Verify** to verify all the domains in the\n data store in the message prompting you to verify the domains.\n Alternatively, click **Verify** in the **Status** column for the\n URL pattern whose domain you want to verify. The **Verify** button is only\n available after the indexing is complete.\n\n6. In the **Domain verification** pane, expand the **Verify the \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eDOMAIN_NAME\u003c/var\u003e domain**\n section.\n\n7. Verify the domain in one of the following ways.\n\n - Verification using domain association:\n\n 1. In the **Initiate association request** section,\n click **Send association request**.\n\n A preview of the email containing the association request that'll be sent\n to the domain owner is displayed.\n 2. Click **Send request** to send the email to the domain owner. A\n confirmation of your request is emailed to you.\n\n - If the domain owner for a domain is not found in Google Search, you must reach out to the domain owner yourself and use the domain ownership verification method to verify the domain.\n - If you don't get a response to your request within a week, you can resend the verification request.\n - If you're the owner of the domain, the domain is automatically verified after you send the verification request.\n\n When the domain owner approves the association request, you receive an\n email confirming the approval.\n - Domain ownership verification:\n\n 1. Click **Verify in Search Console**.\n\n The **Welcome to the Google Search console** page appears.\n 2. Follow the on-screen instructions in the Google Search console to\n verify a domain or a URL prefix, depending on whether you are verifying an\n entire domain or a URL prefix that is part of a domain. For more information,\n see [Verify your site ownership](https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9008080) in the Search Console\n Help Center.\n\n When you have finished the domain verification workflow, the **Data** page\n for your data store appears. The **Status** column indicates that\n indexing is in progress for the website.\n8. Repeat for every URL pattern in your data store that requires domain\n verification."]]
