I want to ask you for help regarding URL Rewrites.
As you can see here I've added the URL rewrite for this path but in the sitemap.xml file there is still not updated it's an old (target path) so the request path is not changed.
If you can help me that will be great.

It seems that Magento, or at least our current version, does not remove an URL rewrite once it has been created, whether or not the corresponding product exists in the current catalog.
Since it is only about single URL rewrite issue you should try below steps if it works for you.
In Admin go to MARKETING
> URL Rewrites
Filter with Target Path
= catalog/category/view/id/219
in your case and then Delete
it using Actions
dropdown after selecting corresponding checkbox.
Then try to save the respective category with id 219 in your case and check or add the URL rewrite manually using Add URL Rewrite
button where you have to fill the details as shown in below image. Please change the Request Path
by copying your existing Request Path
what you have currently then add Target Path
as shown in image and then select Redirect Type
to Permanent (301)
and save then check.

Should I flush or clear cache here or everything will be fine only with saving this. Since I'm new developer on magento and I don't know how exactly things work. Thanks Nov 7, 2022 at 21:33

It's still with id in the sitemap.xml... so it's not removed. I see both paths there the requested one and the target path. Nov 8, 2022 at 8:31

have you already remove the old existing url rewrite entry before adding the new one? Currently is it showing your expected one and also one which you have mentioned in your problem? Nov 8, 2022 at 9:13
