Google announced that the generative AI performance reports in Search Console became available to all websites worldwide as of August 31, 2026, following a gradual rollout that began when they were announced on June 3.
What do the reports show?
They show how often your site’s links appeared inside Google’s AI features — AI Overviews, AI Mode and generative AI features in Discover — broken down by page, country and date, plus device in the Search report.
What don’t they show?
The reports are based on impressions only; they don’t show clicks or the queries your site appeared for. They may also not appear for sites without enough AI impressions.
The opt-out control
On the same date, Google made a setting available worldwide that lets site owners prevent their site from appearing in AI features. We recommend reviewing your impression data carefully before deciding to opt out.
