Update rank tracker keywords
Replace the search terms of a Local Rank Tracker report.
MCP tool brightlocal_write → update_rank_tracker_keywords
write
Saves the list under Search Settings of the report and returns what was added and removed. A list over 100 terms is rejected. BrightLocal shows the new keywords only after the next run. It reaches no one and a second call with the old list undoes it, so it does not ask for your OK by default.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| report_id string required | string | Report ID from list_rank_tracker_reports. |
| keywords string[] required | string[] | The full list of search terms to track, one per item, up to 100. |
