What It Does
research_keywords finds the keywords that 1 to 15 Amazon US products rank for. It compares the products side by side. Each product gets a label: P1, P2, P3, and so on. If you give your own ASIN, the research also shows your keyword gaps.
A research usually takes 1 to 3 minutes. If it finishes in 40 seconds, the answer has the brief. If not, the answer gives a job id for get_job.
A research that you start here is not in your saved researches. To add it, use save_keyword_research with the kr- id from the answer. Until you save it, the list from get_keyword_research names your newest unsaved researches from the last 7 days by their kr- ids, so a new chat can find them.
When To Use It
Use research_keywords for a new comparison. To read a research that you have, use get_keyword_research. It is free.
