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!

Is everybody seeing DA/PA-drops after last MOZ-api update?
Hi all, I was wondering what happend at the last MOZ-update. The MOZ-health page has no current errors and i've checked a lot of websites probably about 50 a 60 from our customers and from our competitiors and everybody seems to have a decrease in DA's / PA's. Not just a couple went up and down like normally would happen, but all seems to have dropped.... Is anyone seeing the same in their campaigns? Greetings,

MOZ Bar recognizes a link as No-Followed even when there's no evidence of nofollow nor external tag
Hi! I've seen that the Moz bar recognizes some links as NoFollowed, even when technically are followed.
API | | Gaston Riera
One example of that is this page: https://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonTraining I've attached an image to clarify.
The link is just: <a class="https" <span="">href="https://rmotr.com"> there is no evidence of no following tag (such as external, nofollow, etc). Thanks!

Is Url-Metrics Historical data available via API?
Hi, we're using Url Metrics API. We were wondering if we could access historical data. Like for example passing the date to query. Currently on the api docs this ability is not listed. Thanks!

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=..
