you don't really use it, it visits you. what you control is what it's allowed to crawl (robots.txt) and what it's allowed to index (noindex). the useful bit is URL Inspection in search console, run a live test and you can see the page the way googlebot rendered it, which catches stuff hidden behind javascript. what are you trying to do with it?
