no sitemap generated

I enabled the plugin on a basic site exported from webflow. No sitemap is generated. Is the netlify.toml file required for this plugin to work? The docs are not clear if it will work just by enabling the plugin or if I need to add the toml file to my project.

Can anyone confirm this? I dont think the plugin works as well. No sitemap.xml is generated

I was able to get it working. The issue for me was that the site must deploy using a git repo for plugins to work. If the site uses direct file upload to deploy, then plugins do not run. The documentation for this was barely a footnote - it should be much more prominent.

wow thanks for confirming. i did uae file upload all the time because it was just a static file.

does google search work after sitemap is generated? because that is problem #2 for me. googlebot cant fetch the sitemap. says 404 when its actually there.
