gsc

Save a page group or keyword cluster

Save a page group or keyword cluster for a site's Search Console data, as a new segment at version 1 or, with id and expected_version, as the next version of one (any change of name, rules or priority is a new version and expires the gsc_table_get cursors read under the old one). Save only what your human asked for; preview the rules first with gsc_segments_preview. Rules past the limits (5 conditions, 50 values in total, RE2 patterns) are VALIDATION_FAILED naming what, as is a name another segment of the same dimension holds; at most 100 of a role per site. A version written since is VERSION_CONFLICT. A new version reads the segment through site first (search:read): another site's is NOT_FOUND. Paid (segments): on a site that is not paid for, BILLING_REQUIRED.

Path parameters

sitestring required

Site ID (site_…), origin (https://example.com), or bare domain, resolved server-side; the response carries the canonical ID.

Request body

idstring

An existing segment's id (sseg_…) to save a new version of; omit to create one.

expected_versioninteger

With id: the version you read (gsc_segments_list). Required of an agent key; a version someone has written since is VERSION_CONFLICT and nothing is saved.

role'group' | 'cluster' required

group: a page group (conditions over page addresses); cluster: a keyword cluster (conditions over queries).

namestring required

What the dashboard calls it: 1 to 80 characters, unique per site and dimension. A role never changes on re-save.

priorityboolean

A page group marked priority is the dashboard's one-click priority pages filter and its pages are inspected first; a cluster marked priority is starred. Default false.

dry_runboolean

true: check the call and say what it would do, without doing it.

confirmboolean

true: go ahead with a change that asks for confirmation.

Response

Save a page group or keyword cluster

summarystring required

The answer in one or two sentences, with the numbers it rests on.

warningsstring[] required

What limits this answer (a cap, a read that was cut short). Empty when nothing does.

idstring required

The segment's id (sseg_…): gsc_table_get's filter.segments takes it.

site_idstring required

The site's canonical id.

role'group' | 'cluster' required
priorityboolean required

A priority page group is the dashboard's priority pages filter; a priority cluster is starred.
