GSC connection status

The Google Search Console (GSC) connection status shows whether BurstWriter can actually pull real search data for a site. It reflects token VALIDITY, not just whether a record exists — so it always matches what the Analytics → Search Performance tab can show.

• Connected — a valid, working connection: clicks, impressions, and rankings flow into the dashboard and Analytics.

• Reconnect needed — a property was connected before, but the stored access token has expired or is no longer valid (for example after a security key change), so no data can be pulled until the client reconnects.

• Not connected — no Search Console connection has been set up for this site yet.
