Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the Headless CMS Support REST API not showing the meta keywords. Currently, our REST API endpoint does not support the direct retrieval of specific meta tags like the keywords meta tag. Instead, you can obtain the entire metadata and then extract the desired meta tag from it.
If you need to access the keywords, you will have to call the entire metadata first and then proceed to extract the meta keywords from the response.
Thank you for raising this concern. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will be happy to help you further!

How can i get meta keywords in my API response ?
Hello,
Rank Math doesn’t display the keyword meta tag by default.
Please note that Google does not honor meta keywords for quite a long now so we never added them to the plugin.
You can read more about that here:
https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2009/09/google-does-not-use-keywords-meta-tag.html
Remember to focus on quality content and relevant keywords in the content for the best SEO results.
However, if you wish to continue adding the keyword to the page source and for the headless CMS support, you may refer to this guide: https://rankmath.com/kb/keywords-meta-tag/#add-keywords
Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any other questions.
