Bing Webmaster Tools in Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor

Bing queries, crawl issues and IndexNow alongside Search Console.

Updated 8 November 2026

Get your Bing Webmaster API key

In Bing Webmaster Tools open Settings → API access → API key, generate or copy it, and paste it on your Search Analyst account page. The key is encrypted at rest and only sent to Bing.

What you can ask

IndexNow, safely

Before submitting, Search Analyst checks that the site is yours (Search Console owner or full user, or a verified Bing site) and that your key file is hosted correctly, and explains the fix if not. IndexNow shares submissions with Bing, Yandex, Naver, Seznam and Yep; Google does not take part.
