Hello everyone. Is it possible to sync my keywords from LrC to Lr? I can add new keyword directly in Lr, but I'm missing all the keywords I've added to my photos in LrC

    As best I know- it is not possible. 

    LrC uses a 'heirarchy' method for KWs and Lr uses a 'flat-file' method. The two are not interchangeable.

    The exception: If you add 'new' photos to a Collection in LrC to sync up to the Cloud ecosystem, then KWs will sync 'up' IF you have saved metadata to files first [Ctrl+S].

    KWs added to images in Lr do not sync down to LrC.

     

    Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.1.1, Photoshop 27.3.1, ACR 18.1.1, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.2 .

      Ehy Rob, thanks for answering me.

      According to your answer, I tried this way: picked up a photo, pressed Ctrl+S to save Metadata into the file (I tried either with a RAW and a DNG) and then I created a new sync collection and added the photos to it.

      In this way (for now) it seems not working.
