Several years ago, Google starting hiding most organic keyword data under "not provided" in Google Analytics.
If you go into Google Analytics and go to Acquisition, Channels, Organic Search, you will see that 98% of your keyword data will show under "not provided."

It shows keywords, rankings, impressions (how many times you showed for that term in said ranking spot) and clicks, with click through rate, of course.
- First, verify your site with Google Webmaster Tools / Search Console.
- Then, link your Search Console with Your Google Analytics Account (associate properties).
- Then, go to your Acquisition Reports, under Search Console, Queries to see your data. Below is what this looks like...
Thanks and have a great day!
