# Update rank tracker keywords

> Replace the search terms of a Local Rank Tracker report. Input schema, a tools/call example and an example result.

Source: https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp/brightlocal/update_rank_tracker_keywords

Docs sections: [Get started](https://cotlet.dev/docs.md) · [REST API](https://cotlet.dev/docs/api.md) · [MCP](https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp.md) · [SDKs & CLI](https://cotlet.dev/docs/sdks.md) · [Integrations](https://cotlet.dev/docs/integrations.md)

Replace the search terms of a Local Rank Tracker report.

BrightLocal MCP tools: https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp/brightlocal.md

MCP tool: `brightlocal_write → update_rank_tracker_keywords`

Access: 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 | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `report_id` | string | yes | Report ID from list_rank_tracker_reports. |
| `keywords` | string[] | yes | The full list of search terms to track, one per item, up to 100. |

## tools/call
