Summary

Google Search Console now lets you view Performance report charts aggregated by week or month in addition to the existing daily view. The new granularity selector appears in the chart area (default is “Daily”) and applies to Search results, Google News, and Discover. The feature is rolling out globally starting 2025-12-10.

Key Points

• How to enable: open the Performance report chart, click the "Daily" dropdown, and choose "Weekly" or "Monthly".
• Purpose: weekly/monthly aggregation smooths daily noise and makes long-term trends and period-to-period comparisons (e.g., last 3 months vs previous 3 months) easier to interpret.
• Export changes: exported files may have different file/tab names, some column headers, and a changed sort order to reflect the selected granularity—review automation that parses exports.
• Scope: applies to Search results, Google News, and Discover reports.
• Practical guidance: use daily for incident debugging and spike investigation; use weekly for short-term trend smoothing; use monthly for long-term growth/decline analysis.
• Rollout: global rollout started on 2025-12-10; check properties for the new selector and update dashboards or ETL jobs that assume daily rows.

Action items for engineers

• Verify any scripts or ETL jobs that consume exported Performance CSVs handle the changed file names, headers, and sort orders.
• Update dashboards or visualizations to offer weekly/monthly aggregations or to explicitly document the granularity in charts and reports.
• Choose aggregation level based on use case: daily for debugging, weekly/monthly for trend analysis and cleaner period comparisons.
