What is Search Console Insights?

Search Console Insights is a new experience tailored for content creators and publishers and can help them understand how audiences discover their site’s content and what resonates with their audiences. This new experience is powered by data from both Google Search Console and Google Analytics.

How can Search Console Insights help you?

Search Console Insights can help site owners, content creators and bloggers to better understand their content’s performance. For instance, it can help answer the following questions:

1. What are your best performing pieces of content?
2. How are your new pieces of content performing?
3. How do people discover your content across the web?
4. What do people search for on Google before they visit your content?
5. Which article refers users to your website and content?

Who can use Search Console Insights?

Search Console Insights is part of Google Search Console, so anyone with a verified Google Search Console property can use it (learn more). We highly recommend that you also associate (link) your site's Google Search Console property with your site's Google Analytics property in order to get much more and much better insights about your content. For now, Search Console Insights only supports Google Analytics UA properties. We are also working on supporting Google Analytics four properties to allow any Google Analytics user to benefit from Search Console Insights.

How can you access Search Console Insights?

There are a few ways to access Search Console Insights:

1. Select 'Search Console Insights' from the top of Google Search Console’s Overview page.
2. Use this link to access it directly and save a bookmark (you can always search for ‘Search Console Insights’ on Google and visit our site!).

Why can't Google just merge all these products together?
Rather than having so many different websites and access points

Analytics and Console could just be one tool

I don't think they need to reduce them in one tool, cuz indeed, the two data sources have different measurement methodologies ..
GA and GSC dont provide the same information.. When GA collects data about visitors to the site, GSC will give it information about the site's SEO.
But there's a way to connect the both, i've jst read some presses about that.

It's normal for a big company to have multiple websites since it has different products/service offerings..
but wait, aren't them merged already in google??
(Maybe i didnt get your question)
