with Google Search Console and Data Stores?
Fetches search analytics from Google Search Console for a verified site.
Add or update a single record in your Pipedream Data Store
Sends a URL update notification to the Google Indexing API
Add or update multiple records to your Pipedream Data Store
Append to a record in your data store Pipedream Data Store. If the record does not exist, a new record will be created in an array format.
The Google Search Console API opens a treasure trove of data and insights about your website's presence in Google Search results. You can get detailed reports on your site's search traffic, manage and test your site's sitemaps and robots.txt files, and see which queries bring users to your site. On Pipedream, utilize this API to automate checks on site performance, integrate with other tools for deeper analysis, or keep tabs on your SEO strategy's effectiveness.
Google Search Console distinguishes between URL properties and Domain properties:
https://example.com
or https://www.example.com
)sc-domain:example.com
)When working with subdomains:
sc-domain:example.com
)https://mcp.example.com
)https://mcp.example.com/app/slack
This approach ensures you can access subdomain data even if the subdomain isn't individually verified in Search Console.
To see data broken down by individual pages (rather than just aggregate data):
For advanced filtering needs, you can also:
SEO Performance Report to Slack: Automate daily or weekly SEO performance reports. Use the Google Search Console API to fetch search analytics data, then send a summary report to a Slack channel, keeping the team informed about trends, keyword rankings, and click-through rates.
Sync Search Results with Google Sheets: Create a workflow that periodically pulls data from the Google Search Console API and adds it to a Google Sheet. This is useful for maintaining an evolving dataset for deeper analysis, historical reference, or sharing insights across teams without giving direct access to the Search Console.
Automatic Sitemap Submission: Set up a Pipedream workflow that triggers whenever a new sitemap is generated in your content management system (CMS). The workflow can then automatically submit the sitemap to Google Search Console via API, ensuring Google has the latest structure of your site for crawling and indexing.

Data Stores are a key-value store that allow you to persist state and share data across workflows. You can perform CRUD operations, enabling dynamic data management within your serverless architecture. Use it to save results from API calls, user inputs, or interim data; then read, update, or enrich this data in subsequent steps or workflows. Data Stores simplify stateful logic and cross-workflow communication, making them ideal for tracking process statuses, aggregating metrics, or serving as a simple configuration store.
export default defineComponent({
props: {
myDataStore: {
type: "data_store",
},
},
async run({ steps, $ }) {
await this.myDataStore.set("key_here","Any serializable JSON as the value")
return await this.myDataStore.get("key_here")
},
})
