: Does Google Search Console track 404s from bots (i.e. spiders, crawlers, etc.)? I have a verified web property on search console. It's been collecting traffic data for months now. I am using
I have a verified web property on search console. It's been collecting traffic data for months now. I am using the crawl errors report to look at 404s on my site. I'm curious if this data collects traffic from bots.
I am looking at the logs on my server, and I see that a request from the user-agent 'bingbot' has hit several pages that don't exist on my site. For example, traffic from bingbot has come to example.com/this/is/a/404.html however, I don't see this URL come up in Search Console when I filter for it. Does Search Console not log 404s from bots? Or is this indicative of an issue I'm not aware of?

The search console logs 404 pages as encountered by the bot
The logs that you see on the server and on the console are different. A 404 on the server log won't necessarily reflect under Crawl Errors in the console.
