Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why should I install Bing URL Submission Plugin?

Bing Webmaster enables quick indexing of your site URLs via the Submit URL API. Bing URL Submissions Plugin automates the submissions of your site URLs to this API by automatically submitting URLs for any page updated/created from WordPress.

  • Where do I find the API key?

To automate Bing URL submissions using the Bing URL Submission Plugin, you need to have your WordPress site registered with Bing Webmaster. Once your site is verified at Bing Webmaster, you can access your API key by navigating to Settings > API Access > API Key within Bing Webmaster portal.

  • I got an error "Adding API key failed: Invalid API Key" when I'm trying to log in to the plugin dashboard using API key. What do I do?

"Invalid URL" error indicates that your API key is invalid for the WordPress site you're trying to configure the plugin against. Please verify that your WordPress site is added and verified against your Webmaster account.

  • "Automatic URL Submission" and "Manual URL Submission" cards are greyed out in plugin dashboard. How do I fix this?

Automatic and manual URL submission cards are disabled if your API key is detected as invalid for submitting URLs against this WordPress site. Please ensure that your site is verified in your Bing Webmaster account and update the plugin with your new API key using 'Update key' option in the API key card.

  • I got an error "Invalid API key : Update API key to enable Automatic & Manual URL submission.". What do I do?

See answer to "Automatic URL Submission" and "Manual URL Submission" cards are greyed out in plugin dashboard. How do I fix this? above.

  • How can I reset the plugin and delete any stored data from my WordPress database?

You can go to 'Plugins' page from your WordPress side menu and click on Deactivate under Bing URL Submissions plugin listing. This will remove the API key integration as well as any locally stored data about submitted URLs. Reactivating the plugin will present you with a clean slate and ask for API key input.
