Hi tybi-seochat!
I'm afraid there's no native way in Open Site Explorer to pull all of your links to PDFs. One option, though, would be to download the CSV with all of your links, and then filter out the ones whose targets don't end in .pdf.
Keep in mind, though, that even that likely won't be every link. The Mozscape index is designed to give you a great sense of your overall link profile, but it isn't exhaustive.

hi Kristina,
i got thousands of .pdf files on the website. and they have hundreds of backlinks.
now i need to get a list of the backlinks only to these files..
i know i can get backlinks for one file manually but my question is if i can get it with some search operator for example.. or some filter..
thanks

Hi there - Kristina from Moz's Help Team here.
I'm not sure if I'm understanding your full question, so please let me know if I'm missing anything.
Our Open Site Explorer tool (https://moz.com/researchtools/ose/) is designed provide you a view of the link data for a particular page, a specific subdomain, or for the entire root domain of a site.
Here's a link to our Help Hub guide on the tool: https://moz.com/help/guides/research-tools/open-site-explorer for additional information.
As always, if you have specific questions about our tools you can always reach out to my team by sending us a note with the details of your question to help@moz.com, but hopefully this helps!
Thank you,

Unsolved Struggling to recouple backlinks that lead to 404 after a redesign launch
We had a site redesign launch a few months ago. Due to other priorities / a lot of things going on, there were a decent amount of URLs that 404ed. We implemented a drupal module search404 to redirect all of these to the homepage or a search results page that pulls search terms from the 404 page. Our goal is to recoup SEO value since we saw a notable dip in domain authority and amount of links after launch. We know a catch-all automated solution like this isn't ideal because it's better to 301 each page to its most relevant live page. For example, if CNN.com links to our Texas location, it's better to 301 to our new texas page than a homepage or search page. The problem is that since we implemented this catch all search404 module, it seems like tools like Moz Pro and Screaming Frog are not picking up the backlinks from external sites that 404 since they were "fixed" by the search404 module. Any ideas on solutions? We're trying to avoid tedious or risky solutions like undoing the module, which may bring back the 404s but cause some UX and SEO issues so we can run a SF crawl. Or going through every link in our link profile manually to check.

Subdomain and nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority?
Greetings, I have a couple of questions about domain authority. 1 - The backlinks that come from different subdomains count several times or only once coming from the same domain? 2 - The nofollow backlinks are used to calculate the domain authority? Thank you.

Most of the backlinks not listed
Hi, I'm running a website since one year and a half, and I'm periodically watching with Moz OSE tools the number of backlinks it has. It still shows only 11 backlinks from 8 domains, even if my actual backlinks are much more and come from about 40 domains. I've already searched the forum and read that Moz scraper updates once per month, but all these backlinks are like 6 months old, and still no trace. Many other competitor tools, including the simple google search console can see all the backlinks, only Moz can't retrieve them. Do you have any idea? Somebody else in the same situation? Or is there a way to submit to Moz links to pages containing that backlinks?

Is Moz's backlink checker.... just... not good?
Hey everyone! Can somebody explain to me why this keeps happening: Whenever I'm trying to backlink my competitors, I typically use RavenTools. Every time, without fail, if I put that same URL into Moz's Open Site Explorer - It gives me about 1/20th of what RavenTools shows me. Sometimes it literally comes up with 2 or 3 links total. Unfortunately, RavenTools has a cap on how many backlink checks you can perform in a month - so once I've used those up, I have to start using OSE... But, it just doesn't work. Does anyone else have this issue? Thanks!

Can I increase my DA with backlinks pointing to the www version ?
Hello Guys, I hope I am posting this in the right section... I was wondering something... I use the www version for my website, So I set the cannonicalisation and the 301 Redirect of non-www to www version. But I checked my website on MOZ (Open Site Explorer) and when I type in mywebsite.com I get 19 DA and 1 PA. When I typed in www,mywebsite.com I get 19 DA and 32 PA. So i would like to have some clarifications about how their domain authority and page authority system work. My PA of the www version is higher than my DA because almost all my link point to the www version and I do the 301 redirect. ? But how can I increase my DA if I focus on building backlink to the www version of my website ? Should I build link to the non-www version of my website to increase my DA even if I use the www version for my website ? If I build backlink to the non-www version, will it increase the PA of the www version since it's has a 301 redirect ? If I build backlink to the www version of my website will it increase the DA of my website ? Im really confused here so any help and clarification from you guys will be really appreciated. Thank You.
