Checking the Index Status in Search Statistics
To check whether your content has been indexed by Google, click on Search Statistics in the All in One SEO menu and then click on the Index Status tab.

At the top of the screen, you'll see a Presence on Google chart that shows how well your content is being indexed by Google.

Click on each status next to the chart to filter the list of content in the Post Index Status section.
The Post Index Status section shows the index status of all of your content.

You can use the All Post Types drop down to filter by each of the content types on your site.
You can use the filters at the top of the table to drill down to specific statuses.

You can also filter by whether the content is allowed or blocked by the robots.txt.

There is also filtering for whether Google can fetch the content or not.

Lastly, there's a filter for whether the content has been crawled by Google using their desktop or mobile agents.

If you hover over the title of any item of content, you'll see links to view the content (View Post), edit the content (Edit Post), or refresh the status of the content (Refresh Status). This last action link will force a check of the content in Google Search Console.

If you click on the arrow to the right of the content, it will expand to show a detailed report.

This detailed report includes information about the index status pulled from Google Search Console, as well as whether the content was found through the sitemaps on your site, or through referring links from other content on your site. It also shows whether there's any rich results for this content found by Google.
NOTE:
Content can be found by Google via many different means, such as links to your content from another site, internal links from other content on your site, and via the sitemaps for your site.
If no sitemaps are listed, it doesn't mean that your content isn't present in your sitemaps. It means that this is not how Google found your content.
You can click on the Inspect in Google Search Console button to open the URL Inspection tool in Google Search Console in a new browser tab, and populate the URL for this item of content. This enables you to request indexing or text the live URL.
Viewing the Index Status in the Search Statistics Dashboard
You can also see an indication of index status on the Dashboard in Search Statistics.
Start by going to Search Statistics in the All in One SEO menu.
Scroll down to the Content Performance table. Here you'll see a column for Indexed with icons in the column to denote the status.

When you hover over the icon in the Indexed column you'll see a popup showing details of the index status in Google.

This popup includes the following details of the index status:
- Whether this content is indexed or not.
- When Google last crawled this content.
- Which user agent Google used to crawl this content (by default, Google uses their mobile user agent).
- Whether crawling is allowed or not.
- Whether indexing is allowed or not.
- Whether the content was successfully fetched.
- The canonical URL set for this content and the canonical URL Google used when indexing this content.
If there's a problem with Google indexing your content then you'll see either an orange or red icon. Hover over the icon to see the details of the problem.
