I'm trying to export 17.5K 404 URLs from Google Search Console. However, Google has a limitation to export 1000 URLs from the Search Console. I tried Google Search Console API, but it does not offer 404 data.

Now, how can I export this large amount of data? is there any way?

Thanks in advance.
 
I believe you can do so via Looker Studio. It requires a bit more technical knowledge, but luckily there are lots of YouTube videos that will guide you through the process.
 
You can try ahrefs and I think you can export all your 404 pages there.

Thanks for your effort, dear. But locker studio only provides performance-related data from the Search console. It does not provide indexing-related data. If you have any references please share them with me.

If you're referring to pages that exist on your website due to technical errors, there are plenty of tools that could do that, screamingfrog is a good one,
You can also filter the pages per sitemap (assuming each sitemap contains <= 1K URLs), export for each, then group the output reports,

If you're referring to pages that have been deleted from the website, that would be tricky, you can't do that with GSC or any other tool directly,
A workaround could be getting all of the website's old urls somehow (wayback machine), and filtering the old/existing URLs,

Why do you need the URLs in the first place?
Maybe there's another alt way to achieve whatever you're trying to achieve

Thanks, brother. I need to clean my Google Search Console for my client. So I plan to set 410 for those 17k urls.

A good workaround is to use a web scraping tool or automation script to extract the data in batches directly from Google Search Console. You can also try integrating a third-party SEO tool that syncs with your account and offers a larger export limit. If possible, segment the data by date or URL patterns to make the export process more manageable.
 
Another option is to use a desktop site analysis program. These tools can deeply scan your site and pinpoint all broken links, allowing you to export the full list. That would give you all 17.5K without relying on the platform's export feature.
