What does "ffspl" mean in a url-metrics result set?
-
So I've got this server-side JScript object I've declared which works nicely for us.
var mozObj = new MozInteraction()
.setMethod("GET")
.setHost("http://lsapi.seomoz.com")
.setPath("linkscape/url-metrics")
.setCols(parseInt("11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111", 2))
.setLines(10)
.setAccessId(accessId)
.setSecret(secret)
.setExpires((new Date()).addDays(1).valueOf())
.generateSignature();etc etc
The setCols call sets the Cols value to the maximum possible: 9007199254740991.
The weird thing is that in the JSON response I get a whole pile of column names that I can't find descriptions for in the documentation at https://moz.com/help/links-api/making-calls/response-fields
e.g.
ffspl1 ffspl2 ffspl3 ... fuspl0 fuspl1 fuspl2 fuspl3 ... pfspl0 pfspl1 pfspl2 pfspl3 ... puspl0 puspl1 puspl2 puspl3... etc

This is interesting. Most data suppliers will say if scripts break, that's down to the programmer's poor use of error-handling (if/except/fallback statements). It's nice to see that with Moz, there's a little more thought

Hey Steve!
Those are older deprecated responses, they will return a value of '0'. We left them available for calling so they don't break anyones existing script but they are not valid metrics. You can see the full list of supported URL metrics here:
https://moz.com/help/links-api/making-calls/url-metrics
Hope that helps, let us know if you have further questions.

Are Moz-specific ids available in response sets from V2 calls?
I'm assuming that moz assign a unique internal id to each page, subdomain and root_domain. When making v2/links requests, are these moz-specific ids available? Currently, when gathering backlinks for a client we're generating our own ids. Maintaining uniqueness is costly time-wise. "results": [{

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

API - Internal Links to page and related metrics
Hi dear moz Team! Currently I´m building a Java application accessing your API. But there are some metrics I urgently need which I can´t get out of the API until now: The total number of internal links to a page The total number of internal links to a page with partial anchor text match MozRank passed by all internal links w. part. match anchor text (would be nice) For example, if I try this by your links endpoint, my idea was: http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/links/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jetztspielen.de%2F?AccessID=..
API | | pollierer
&Expires=..
&Signature=..
&Scope=domain_to_page
&Filter=internal
&Sort=domain_authority
&SourceCols=4 (or any other value)
&SourceDomain=www.jetztspielen.de
&Offset=0
&Limit=50 If I try this, the API says: {"status": "400", "error_message": "Cannot set a source domain when filtering for internal links."} Is there any way to get the data I need by your API endpoints? I´m currently writing my master thesis and it is very important to me to solve this somehow. Thank you very much in advance! Best, Andreas Pollierer1 -
On-Page Reports showing old urls
While taking a look at our sites on-page reports I noticed some of our keywords with very old urls that haven't existed for close to a year. How do I make sure moz's keyword ranking is finding the correct page and make sure I'm not getting graded on that keywords/urls that don't exist any more or have been 301'd to new urls? Is there a way to clean these out? My on-page reports say I have 62 reports for only a total of 34 keywords in rankings. As you can see from the image most of the urls for "tax folder" have now been 301'd to not include /product or /category but moz is still showing them with the old url structure. BTW our site is minespress.com 2KdGcPL.png
