Non-Indexable URL in Sitemap

Error index.noindex_in_sitemap

What it means

A sitemap lists a URL that is noindex, an error, or redirected. Sitemaps are a statement of the pages you want indexed, and contradicting it wastes crawl budget and erodes trust in the file.

How to fix it

Remove the URL from the sitemap, or make it indexable if it belongs there.
