Minor cleaning up in the Search Console API

With the move to the new Search Console, we’ve decided to clean up some parts of the Search Console API as well. In the Search Analytics API, going forward we’ll no longer support these Android app search appearance types:

• Is Install
• Is App Universal
• Is Opened

Since these appearance types are no longer used in the UI, they haven’t been populated with data recently. Going forward, we won’t be showing these types at all through the API. 

Additionally, for the Sitemaps API, we’re no longer populating data on indexing status of submitted sitemap files in the “Indexed” field.

We’re still committed to the Search Console API. In particular, we’re working on updating the Search Console API to the new Search Console. We don’t have any specific timeframes to share at the moment, but stay tuned to find out more!
