It will great if you can provide us a support email Id for immediate response.

Hey There,
I am so sorry you ran into this issue with the API. Due to an incredibly heavy traffic volume on the Mozscape index, one of our servers crashed, causing an outage in the tools that pull data from the index. The issue has been fixed and you should be able to access the tool with no issues now.
Please give that a try and let us know if you need any other assistance.

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

API - Row Limit Question
Hi, I'm new to using Moz, and have just got a "Low volume" API account set up. My question is, because ive not yet reached my maximum "Rows per month" limit, what behaviour happens when i reach it? Do i get an error code, if so what, and whats the status code. If not, does my account keep downloading the rows and i get charged extra (in accordance with the cost of the additional rows)? Or is the whole additional rows think like a bolt on? Basically i want to make sure i dont get charged extra each month, and i need the status code returned to handled this in my app. I couldnt see anything explicit in the documents. Cheers

3 result limit to Top Pages API call
I am using the MOZ API to make calls for the top pages for a particular URL. However, when I pass in any limit value greater than 3 the API only returns 3 results. I have even tried to put in URLs like 'www.moz.com' and still only 3 results. Sample call to the API below: http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/top-pages/www.moz.com?AccessID=member-xxxxxxxxx&Expires=1419020831&Signature=xxxxxxxxx&Cols=2052&Offset=0&Limit=50

Moz Local, only did 3 listings...
I used Moz local and it only successfully created 3 listings.. the rest all require I manually add the information. Seems like a steep price for 3 listings. I was under the impression it would do more than that. And on top of that, it created a google+ page and I already have one which now I cannot find a way to update. Same for facebook. I have a page, I even had it in the CSV file, but it didn't load it. Some help would be appreciated.
