TL;DR
I can only get keywords into Saved Keywords by finding them through Keyword Research first. I should be able to bring in a list I already have and get its stats.
What is happening?
Keyword Research takes up to five seed terms, and Saved Keywords fills only from those results. When I already have a list, such as a client's export from another tool or a content plan, there is no way to add it, so the filters, tags, exports and "Update keyword stats" can't be used on it. My first case was about 1,550 Danish keywords for a therapy site.
What should happen?
From Saved Keywords, paste keywords one per line or upload a CSV, choose the country and language, optionally tag the batch, see how many keywords will be imported and roughly what fetching their stats will cost, then confirm. The keywords appear in the saved list with volume, difficulty, intent and CPC, ready to filter and export.
Extra context
A working version is on my fork: https://github.com/danielhigueramarketing-a11y/open-seo/tree/feat/import-keywords (spec in specs/0012-import-keywords.md). Happy for it to serve as a reference.
