Your sitemap can only have content that is intended to be indexed and is actually accessible.
You can see possible errors in the sitemap in Google Search Console. Use consistent URLs: Google crawls your URLs exactly as you enter them in your sitemap. So be consistent and don't mix different spellings. Pages that cannot be indexed have no place in your sitemap: Remove non-indexable pages from your sitemap. This includes redirected pages, canonicalized pages, error pages such as the 404 page, 403 page, etc. Work with multiple sitemaps: To get your products, important URLs and videos indexed better and faster, you can work with different sitemaps and submit them to Google Search Console. Sitemap index file: If you have multiple sitemaps, you can use a sitemap index file.
