Google has enhanced its Search Console with a new capability allowing users to export hourly performance data for the last 24 hours. The feature comes as an addition to the recently introduced 24-hour view functionality.
The newly implemented export button enables users to download detailed hourly metrics in multiple formats:
- Google Sheets
- Microsoft Excel
- CSV format
This enhancement brings significant value for data analysis purposes, particularly for users who need to examine performance metrics outside the Google Search Console interface. The feature proves especially useful for:
Debugging processes and insight discovery, offering a granular view of website performance on an hourly basis.
While the export function provides near real-time data access, users should be aware that the recent metrics might not represent final figures. It's recommended to validate this data against other exports to ensure accuracy in reporting and optimize site performance effectively.
The export capability remains limited to the previous 24-hour period, providing a snapshot of recent performance rather than historical data.
