Select Accounts
Select Google Search Console properties to use in other nodes
The Select Accounts node lets you define which Google Search Console properties to use in downstream nodes. You can select them manually, fetch all available, or use filters. This is an AI-powered node that can understand natural language instructions.
This node simplifies workflows with multiple Google Search Console steps by centralizing property selection.
When to Use It
Use this node when:
- You want to avoid selecting the same GSC properties in every report node
- You’re building larger workflows and want to manage property selection dynamically
- You need to reuse a filtered group of properties based on naming or URL
- Building an AI agent that needs to list properties before running reports
Inputs
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Selection Mode | Select dropdown | Yes | Choose how to define your properties: manual, all, or filtered |
| Properties | Multi-select | Yes (manual) | Manually select GSC properties to use in later nodes |
| Filters | Text filter | Yes (if filter mode) | Filter properties by name or URL using text conditions |
| Limit | Number | No | Max number of properties to return in filter or all mode |
Selection Modes
- Manual Selection: Pick specific properties one by one
- Select All Available: Automatically includes all GSC properties tied to the authenticated connection
- Filter by Name/URL: Define rules (e.g., “URL contains ‘example.com’”) to select properties dynamically
The Properties, Filters, and Limit fields will appear or hide automatically based on your selection mode.
Output
The node returns the selected property URLs and property information under a data key. You can reference this in any downstream Google Search Console node.
Property Selection Output:
- Property URLs: Unique identifiers for selected properties
- Property Names: Human-readable names for each property
- Property Type: Website, Android app, or iOS app
- Verification Status: Whether the property is verified
- Permission Level: Your access level (owner, full user, restricted user)
Credit Cost
- Cost per run: 0 credits (property selection is free)
Example Usage
Configuration Example:
- Selection Mode: Filter by URL
- Filter: “URL contains ‘mysite.com’”
- Limit: 3 properties
This would select up to 3 GSC properties with “mysite.com” in their URL.

- Property URL: The exact URL or identifier used in Search Console (e.g., “https://example.com/”)
