Are EC2 servers blocked from using the Moz API?
-
Hi
I've created a script that I'd like to use to check a list of domains using the Moz API.
It works totally fine on my local machine.
However, when I run it from my EC2 instance, it fails every time. To be specific, the response is always empty (the response is an empty json array) when the request is sent from EC2.
Is, for some reason, EC2 blocked by the Moz API?
Many thanks for your help, Andrew

Sure thing! Good to hear. Good luck!

Thanks Aaron, there was a simple error in the code that got discovered (and yep, you're right, I was using old API keys as well).
All good now, but thanks for the reply.

Hey Andrew! Sorry you're having this issue. I tried to find your API key using this account that you posted from, but it doesn't look like it has an API key associated with it. Are you using the API key from a different account? Let me know and I'll be able to see if it's specific to your account. If you can post the code that you're using (you can remove the account-specific details), that might help us, too. Thanks!

Can links tracking lists help to crawl high authority backlinks by Moz?
My backlinks are not crawling by Moz yet after creating them four months ago. I have just added them in the links tracking lists now. May these links tracking lists help to crawl these backlinks by Moz? I have created same backlinks for my another site. But it has crawled by Moz within 10 days. This site is EditorialGE. But the same backlinks of my another sites are not crawled my Moz yet. Even my guest posts' links are not crawled by Moz yet which are created about two months ago. So, I have submitted them to links tracking list. Can links tracking lists help to crawl those high authority relevant backlinks ba Moz? Please let me know.

Moz Not Accounting for Google Tags
The main problem I have is that the most serious issues facing my site have been dealt with using Google Tags, but Moz doesn't take this into account (this has been verified by a Moz employee) so I can't get an accurate account of what crawl issues need fixing and which ones are resolved. Does anyone know a way to make Moz Tools account for Google Tags?

Error when generating secret API key
Hi, I am trying to generate an API key for the past 24 hours and I keep on getting the same vague explanation (attached below) of the error. Help Hub had no responses regarding the error also. "Oops - Something went wrong while trying to get your API Credentials. Please try again or check out the Help Hub if you are still experiencing issues." Appreciate any assistance on solving this issue. Thanks! Ian

Use of Moz with non-latin characters
Hey there, I am new member with Moz and i have to say that you are doing very good job. Three days ago, i have learnt that the On-page Grader and On-Page Optimization tools are useless for me because i am using no-latin keywords (greek characters) in order to optimize my SEO. From that moment i dont know how to properly use moz pro in order to optimize my SEO score (if this still can be done) so i would like to ask: Without these two powerfull tools how can i use the Moz Pro in order to optimize my (greek) website? Is this possible to do it with out these two tools? should i try to do it manually? if yes what i have to read/learn in order to do it manually? What other tools can i use in order to help me rank my website instead of On-Page grader and optimization? Thanks in advance

Any idea why HubSpot (which uses the MOZ api) can find our backlinks but OSE can not?
Links are showing up in the HubSpot link tool within a couple of days. OSE has our site showing zero backlinks. ahrefs is finding them too but that makes more sense. Does the API update more frequently than OSE? Any thoughts? Thanks!
