Google Search Console: Search Appearance dimension on the Wide report

Updated: October 26, 2026
Affected: Wide
What to do: No action required. Add Search Appearance to a Wide extraction to start collecting it; existing extractions are unaffected until you add the dimension.

Google's Search Analytics API supports grouping results by Search Appearance — the search result feature a page showed up in, such as a rich result, AMP page, or product snippet. Improvado's Search Console connector now ingests it, so a new Search Appearance dimension is available on the Wide report, next to Query, Page, Country and Device.

What's new

Search Appearance: the type of search result feature the property appeared in for a query, such as AMP_BLUE_LINK, PRODUCT_SNIPPETS, or AMP_TOP_STORIES. It was already usable as a pre-filter; it is now also selectable as an output dimension to break out performance metrics by result type.

Good to know

Search Appearance is filled only for rows where Search Console recorded a matching search result feature. Queries and pages with no special presentation return no value for this dimension, which is normal API behavior.

Nothing else changed

This is purely additive. No existing field was renamed, removed or recalculated, and existing Wide report extractions keep working unchanged.
