Connecting Google Search Console (GSC) to Datadrew lets Drew AI answer questions about your organic search performance -- keyword rankings, click-through rates, impressions, and more. This guide walks you through the connection process.
Prerequisites
A Google account with Owner or Full user access to the Search Console property for your Shopify store's domain.
An active Datadrew account with your Shopify store already connected.
Pop-ups enabled in your browser.
Step-by-step connection
In Datadrew, go to Settings > Integrations.
Find the Google Search Console card and click Connect.
A Google sign-in window will open. Sign in with the Google account that has access to your Search Console property.
Google will ask you to grant Datadrew read-only access to your Search Console data. Click Allow.
After authorization, you will be redirected back to Datadrew.
Datadrew will list all Search Console sites (properties) accessible with your credentials. Each property shows its site URL.
Select the property that corresponds to your Shopify store and click Confirm.
How GSC data is used
Unlike other integrations, Google Search Console data does not go through the our data pipeline data pipeline. Instead, it is accessed in real-time by Drew AI through the MCP gateway. This means:
Drew AI can answer live questions about your organic search performance.
You can ask about keyword rankings, search impressions, clicks, CTR, and average position.
Data is always fresh -- pulled directly from Google's API when you ask.
What you can ask Drew AI
With GSC connected, Drew AI supports questions like:
"What are my top organic keywords this month?"
"Which pages have the highest organic CTR?"
"Show me my search impressions trend for the last 90 days"
"What is my average position for [keyword]?"
"Compare my organic clicks this month vs. last month"
Key metrics available
Metric | Definition | Why It Matters |
Impressions | Number of times your site appeared in Google search results. | Measures your organic visibility. More impressions mean more potential traffic. |
Clicks | Number of times users clicked through to your site from search results. | Your actual organic traffic from Google search. |
CTR | Click-through rate: clicks divided by impressions. | Indicates how compelling your search listings are. Improve titles and meta descriptions to boost CTR. |
Average Position | Your average ranking position in Google search results for a given query or page. | Lower numbers are better. Track position changes to measure SEO impact. |
Disconnecting and reconnecting
You can disconnect Google Search Console from Settings > Integrations. To reconnect, click Connect and complete the Google authorization again.
