Google has confirmed a bug with the Discover report within Google Search Console. Google had a data “logging” error that caused a decrease in clicks and impressions for the Discover report between the dates of May 7, 2026 until May 8, 2026.

Google said this is just a “data logging only” and your positioning in Google Discover was not impacted.

The issue. Google again said a data logging issue caused reporting issues with the Discover report between May 7, 2026, and May 8, 2026.

This may have resulted in a “decrease in clicks and impressions in the Discover performance report,” Google posted.

Why we care. There were a number of publishers noticing a drop in clicks and impressions based on this report, keep in mind, if you do also, it is likely related to this reporting bug.

Annotate your reporting and update your stakeholders that May 7 – May 8 data for Discover was broken and should be disregarded.
