from index_now import submit_url_to_index_now, IndexNowAuthentication, SearchEngineEndpoint

authentication = IndexNowAuthentication(
    host="example.com",
    api_key="a1b2c3d4",
    api_key_location="https://example.com/a1b2c3d4.txt",
)

endpoint_bing = SearchEngineEndpoint.BING
endpoint_yandex = SearchEngineEndpoint.YANDEX
endpoint_custom = "https://example.com/indexnow"

for endpoint in [endpoint_bing, endpoint_yandex, endpoint_custom]:
    submit_url_to_index_now(authentication, "https://example.com/page1", endpoint)

Tip

The IndexNow organisation maintains a list of currently available search engines that support the IndexNow API. Find it here:

indexnow.org/searchengines.json

Warning

It is not recommended to submit the same URLs to multiple endpoints. Once you have successfully submitted to one IndexNow endpoint, the IndexNow service is designed to propagate your URLs to other search engines, so you do not need to submit to multiple times.
