Required access
Keyword Hero signs in with Google and needs ongoing access to three Google APIs. Without any one of them it cannot match keywords, or cannot deliver them.
| Access | Why | Level needed |
|---|---|---|
| Google Search Console API | Queries, impressions and positions per page | Access to every Search Console property of the website |
| Google Analytics Data API | The organic sessions, key events and revenue to match | Read access to your original property |
| Google Analytics Admin API | Creating the Keyword Hero property and uploading data to it | Edit rights on the Google Analytics account that holds it |
Keyword Hero also uses data it collects itself, such as crawls of your website and of search result pages. That needs nothing from you. See How keyword matching works.
What Keyword Hero does not do
Section titled “What Keyword Hero does not do”- It does not change your original property. It reads from it and writes to a separate one.
- It does not add personal data. Keyword Hero works inside Google Analytics and adds no personally identifiable information.
Removing access
Section titled “Removing access”Removing the access in your Google account stops Keyword Hero. See Disconnect Keyword Hero.
