Get search rankings

MCPget_search_rankingsREAD$0.04 / call

Get real Google Search Console positions for the docs (PRO): average position, impressions, clicks, the queries they rank for, and the 'worth improving' set (position 5-20 — already visible to Google, not yet winning the click). Use this to decide WHICH page to rewrite and for WHICH query, instead of guessing from traffic alone. Data is cached and lags ~2 days behind Google. Pass refresh=true to pull fresh data (allowed once per day; Google itself only updates daily). This answers WHAT, not what to do about it. If you have not already got the method from docsbook_expert, get it first: it names which readings answer this question, what to compare them against, and what would make the conclusion wrong. One call, changes nothing.

Arguments
workspace_idstringoptional

Workspace ID (optional when MCP endpoint is auto-scoped to a workspace). Numeric workspace id — OR the project as the user names it: 'owner/repo', the repo name alone, the site's display name, its docs URL or custom domain. Text is resolved server-side; an ambiguous name returns the candidates instead of guessing, so pass what the user said rather than calling list_workspaces first.

refreshbooleanoptional

Pull fresh data from Google before returning (max once per day)

Try it over REST#

The same tool is callable as a plain HTTP request, no MCP client required. It runs on the same server, at the same price.

Your workspace is resolved from the API key, so workspace_id is decided server-side here and anything you send for it is ignored.

POST/api/v1/tools/get_search_rankings
Authorization
