1.1 Workflow description

Title
Research SEO keywords from a seed term with Keupera and n8n data tables
Workflow name
Research SEO keywords from a seed term with Keupera and n8n data tables

Quick overview

This workflow collects a seed keyword via an n8n form, triggers Keupera keyword research, polls until the job completes, and stores the resulting keyword list (intent, volume, difficulty, CPC, and more) in an n8n Data Table (exchangeable).

How it works

  1. Receives a seed keyword from an n8n form submission.
  2. Sends the keyword, website ID, language, and country to the Keupera Keyword Research API to start an asynchronous research job.
  3. Waits briefly and then polls the Keupera job status endpoint until the research status is marked as completed.
  4. Extracts and splits the returned keyword results into individual keyword items.
  5. Creates an n8n Data Table named for the seed keyword and Keupera job ID.
  6. Inserts each keyword result as a row in the Data Table, including term, intent, volume, language, difficulty, opportunity, funnel stage, keyword group, and CPC.

Setup

  1. Create a Keupera account and copy your API key and Website ID from the Keupera dashboard.
  2. Update the workflow’s Keupera values (API key in the HTTP Authorization headers and the website ID value used when building the request body).
  3. Set the desired language and country values used for the Keupera research request.
  4. Ensure your n8n instance has Data Tables enabled (or replace the Data Table steps with another destination such as Google Sheets or Notion).

Requirements

  • You need a Keupera API key.

Customization

  • You can choose where to save the keyword research results.

4. Reproducing the Workflow from Scratch

  1. 1. Download the workflow JSON

    Use the JSON export at /data/workflows/15921/15921.json as the source template for this automation.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
