Validate fix

Start Google's validation of a fixed indexing or page experience issue.

POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/google-search-console/fix/validate

write

Clicks Validate fix on an issue after you fixed every instance; validation stops when Google finds a single remaining instance. Search Console first checks a few pages, then queues only the URLs with known instances for recrawling. It typically takes up to about two weeks and can take much longer, and Google emails the progress. Do not call it again until validation has succeeded or failed. It reaches no one and changes nothing on your site, so it runs without asking first.

property string required string Property as Search Console lists it: sc-domain:example.com for a Domain property, https://example.com/ for a URL-prefix property.
