Hi @abdullah_9
I am from Mageplaza - Shopify solution expert.
In Shopify, it’s not possible to hide the URL handle in the Search Engine Listing. Displaying the URL handle enhances the product’s searchability. Therefore, attempting to hide it is not advisable.
Hiding product URLs from search engines can negatively impact your store’s visibility and SEO performance. It’s recommended to keep product URLs accessible to ensure better search engine rankings and customer discoverability.
Best regards!
