Need advice! what items are closed in the sitemap?

Question

Search Engine Optimization

Hello!
Actually here is a screenshot of my Sitemap. Which items should be closed yet or set to open. And do I need to close the sitemap with a checkmark? and how to check whether I have closed access to the indexing of a page or not. Thank you!

Sitemap is not an instruction for indexing, but a site map, an assistant in finding the actual pages of the site.
In principle, you can select all the pages, the search engine will figure it out for itself: what to index and what not.
It makes sense to add pages of product cards, because usually it is with them that there are indexing problems (a high level of nesting, for example).
Ideally, just remove:
- pagenotfound
- my-account
- cart
- history
- order
- order-opc
- order-confirmation
- products-comparison
- order-slip
- search
- login
Those. technical pages. Moreover, it is better to close them from the index in robots.txt (especially those related to order: otherwise confidential information may be leaked).
