Try following these steps and see,
1. Clear all your caching from your theme, plugin, server, CDN like CloudFlare or browser.
2. Delete your sitemap in Google. Doing so will not hurt the SEO of the site.
3. Submit the sitemaps again.
4. Monitor the results to see if the noindex error resolves.

First, figure out why that page has no index and do it need to be indexed or its better to keep it not indexed
View the html source of your page and see if there is a tag like this -
<meta name="robots" content="noindex">
Either remove this tag or change "noindex" to "index", if you are using any CMS like Wix or WordPress then you will see the option similar to "search engine visibility" in the page setting and there you change if it should be indexed or not.
if you can't see noindex tag in your source .. then there could be any other issue.. let me know if this is the case..

if I delete meta name ="robots" content="noindex" have problem with article in google search console? because yesterday or two days ago I publish a new article in the blog and go to gsc to make their index but until now my article didn't got an index. Do you have a solution to this?

Meta robots tag instructs search engine bots if the page should be indexed or not.. If you have the tag and it is saying "noindex" then it means search engine is not allowed to index the page. If you mention "index" in this tag or this tag is not present then Google by default considers that it is allowed to index the page. So not having this tag won't cause any problems in GSC as google will by default be allowed to index.
Regarding indexing your new article, make sure your content is not duplicate... and you also inspect your page in the search console if there is any other technical error that is restricting its indexing.

same noindex problem. I analyzed my site with ubbersuggest and it says several pages blocked from indexing. Researched this problem a lot but can't see an actionable answer.
my problem is how do I arrive at the source code of my posts to change the "noindex" to "index". I am on wordpress.

I am using Yoast and I have a feeling its the genesis of the poblem.
I have checked settings on "Reading" and are okey. Have checked the Yoast individual post setting and they are set to be crawled. I have checked the page html source code on my browser, its set to "Content = index.
I deactivated Yoast to see if there can be any change but that has affected my sitemap since I use the plugin to generate the sitemap, and still yet the posts are not crawled.
I will now try reposting the un-indexed articles afresh and tweak the url a little bit.
