Hello Everyone,

I generated a sitemap with nextjs by following the steps. It works well. But when I want Google Search Console to fetch the data from my sitemap, it's written "couldn't fetch", it's been more than a month.
Anyone knows what's wrong? I've seen this problem also on Stackoverflow and Github, but nobody was able to solve this issue!

SO this is my sitemap. It's inside the app file

import { fetchAllData } from "@/lib/contentful/retrieveData";

export async function getPostData() {
  
    const allPosts = await fetchAllData();
  
    return {
      allPosts
    };
  }


export default async function sitemap() {
    const postData = await getPostData();
    const website = [
        {
          url: 'roastmysaas.cc',
          lastModified: new Date(),
          changeFrequency: 'yearly',
          priority: 1,
        },
        {
          url: 'https://roastmysaas.cc/directory',
          lastModified: new Date(),
          changeFrequency: 'monthly',
          priority: 0.8,
        }
      ]
      const companiesName = postData.allPosts.map(data => {
        return data.fields.companyName
      })
      const xml = companiesName.map(info => {
        return {
            url: `https://roastmysaas.cc/directory/${info.toLowerCase()}`,
            lastModified: new Date(),
            changeFrequency: 'monthly',
            priority: 1
        }
      })
      const xmlMerged = [...xml, ...website];
      
    return xmlMerged
  }```

And the generated sitemap.xml? What does it look like?

#

Which URL did you submitted to serarch console?

I iterated multiple times based on what I found on Stackoverflow.

But initially it was the sitemap generated by the code above.

The new one is this code:

import { fetchAllData } from "@/lib/contentful/retrieveData";

const URL = 'https://roastmysaas.cc'

export async function getPostData() {

  const allPosts = await fetchAllData();

  return {
    allPosts
  };
}

export async function GET() {
  const postData = await getPostData();
  const companiesName = postData.allPosts.map(data => {
      return data.fields.companyName
    })
    
    const body = generateSiteMap(companiesName);

  return new Response(body, {
    status: 200,
    headers: {
      "Cache-control": "public, s-maxage=86400, stale-while-revalidate",
      "content-type": "application/xml",
    },
  });
}

function generateSiteMap(companiesName) {
  return `<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
   <urlset xmlns="https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
     <!--We manually set the two URLs we know already-->
     <url>
       <loc>${URL}</loc>
       <lastmod>${new Date()}</lastmod>
       <changefreq>monthly</changefreq>
       <priority>1</priority>
     </url>
     <url>
       <loc>${URL}/directory</loc>
     </url>
     ${companiesName
       .map((id ) => {
         return `
           <url>
               <loc>${`${URL}/directory/${id.toLowerCase()}`}</loc>
               <lastmod>${new Date()}</lastmod>
              <changefreq>monthly</changefreq>
              <priority>1</priority>
           </url>
         `;
       })
       .join("")}
   </urlset>
 `;
}```

I dont think this a nextjs issue

gentle stratus
#

ah got it

#

why does it work correctly when the sitemap is generated through webflow.com for example?

No idea tbh, even my sites dont have their sitemaps working on search console.. but the sites are correctly indexed by just google bot crawling them
