Common Indexing Issues
Alternative page with proper canonical tag
This error is not an issue and can be ignored. The notice is caused by a page being marked as an alternate of another page, however it correctly points to the canonical (original) page, which has been successfully indexed.
A common occurrence that causes this notice is the ‘?filters=’ attribute.

A canonical URL is the URL of a page that Google chose as the most representative from a set of duplicate pages
Duplicate without user-selected canonical
This is not an error and is working as intended, Google does not index duplicate pages and therefore automatically assigning this page as a canonical.

Not Found (404)
