And originally, Search Console and Analytics used to be more "merged" into same product, and that`s where confusion begins!

There were are 2 ways to authenticate and use google analytics within All in SEO:

1 - using short tag:

2 - using meta data:

BUT THEY ARE NOT VALID ANYMORE... NOT FOR SEARCH CONSOLE!

Google Search Console reply:

We couldn't find your verification token in your domain's TXT records. You might need to wait a few minutes before Google sees your changes to the TXT records.
