Sitemaps with >50,000 URLs

Sitemaps included in the crawl which contain more than 50,000 URLs.

Priority: Critical

Impact: Negative

What issues it may cause​

Sitemaps may contain up to 50,000 URLs, which means that all pages above this limit will be ignored.

How do you fix it​

If your sitemaps contain more than 50K URLs you should consider splitting them into smaller Sitemaps with less than 50K URLs in each.

What is the positive impact​

All the pages included in the Sitemaps can be discovered by search engines and process additional information about them such as when they were updated and/or if they have any alternate language version.

How to fetch the data for this report template​

You will need to run a crawl for report template to generate report. When report has been generated and you have crawl id you can fetch data for the report using the following query:

Operation: query GetReportStatForCrawl( $crawlId: ObjectID! $reportTemplateCode: String! $after: String ) { getReportStat( input: {crawlId: $crawlId, reportTemplateCode: $reportTemplateCode} ) { crawlSitemaps(after: $after, reportType: Basic) { nodes { url sitemapType urlCount } totalCount pageInfo { endCursor hasNextPage } } } }Variables: {"crawlId":"TjAwNUNyYXdsNDAwMA","reportTemplateCode":"sitemaps_too_many_urls"}
