Ping failed for Bing: #<OpenURI::HTTPError: 410 Gone> #391

Hi, this is more of a question than an issue.

Around 12/22/2021, we started to notice interesting sitemap generation logs: Ping failed for Bing: #<OpenURI::HTTPError: 410 Gone> (URL http://www.bing.com/ping?sitemap=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.some.ru%2Fsitemaps%2Fvideo%2Fsitemap. xml.gz)

If we can trust https://www.ctrl.blog/entry/sitemap-ping-indexnow.html, then microsoft turned off the public API (http://www.bing.com/ping) that is currently used for ping, instead they uses IndexNow.

What do you think about this?

Yes you are correct. In v6.2.0 the Bing url was updated to one that still works but is for notification of new sitemaps only, see https://github.com/kjvarga/sitemap_generator/pull/386. But IndexNow appears to be the better way to do it. It’s just a lot more complicated to implement and requires setup on your part as well, so I’m unlikely to implement it, but am open to a PR.
