Duplicate, Google chose different canonical than user

October 22, 2023

I started getting this message in search console:

Duplicate, Google chose different canonical than user

These pages aren’t indexed or served on Google

But then, when I use the URL inspection tool, Google says that

Google-selected canonical

is

Same as user-declared canonical

So which one is it Google? Did you “chose a different canonical” did you select “Same as user-declared canonical”

Seems like something pretty basic to get right Google.
