How to best use MOZ api?
-
i love the idea of the api - but need a tool to access it.
having seen the seogadget excel addin, but unable to use it with my MAC.
Do you have a recommendation for using api without writing my own code?
Thanks, in advance!

Hey Robert,
Thanks for the question. The API can be tough to use if you don't have the coding knowledge to develop your tools. You may want to consider just using Open Site Explorer if you're not able to make or find a tool that you're enjoying.
Here's some examples of things people have put together using our API:

Cheers,
Joel.

Does Moz DotBor crawler is the slowest than earlier?
I have these websites https://www.interessanter.com/ and https://www.techniken.net/ I managed to create quality links and reach Ahrefs DR 46 and even TF 20 in a few months, but on my server logs, I haven´t seen any DOT bot logs. It only crawls you if you are linked to a very high DA site now? To be honest I placed here those links ask in order to see if that helps. I remember that last year it wasn't like that. If someone can point me in the right direction to increase DA and PA I will really appreciate it. THANKS!

API for crawl reports?
Hello, I'd like to know if moz api is able to provide me the crawl reports. We're currently developing a simple crawl report analysis/parsing tool and after analysing the API we weren't able to find a function that could return us wether the excel file or the report results. Is there any way? Thank you very much.

API Limit Question
Hi, I am unfamiliar with API's in general but never had an issue with being throttled until today. I used the api a lot heavier today which is why. According to the API dashboard I made 5100 "requests" today and 21,000 "rows returned". I am using a MOZ PRO account and have been throttled as a result. I am wondering when does it reset? Is it a daily, weekly, or monthly limit that I hit and what is the limit? Thanks

Is it possible to send a string/id to an api call and return it?
I am integrating your mozscape API into a project of mine and I am in need of seeing if I can send and return a variable with an associated call. For instance when I am sending some batch URL's I am requesting the [upa] and [pda] back. I am also requesting the [uu] (canonical URL) but it always seems to come back blank. So the issue I am having is if I send a batch of urls to the API how do I know how to associate a [upa] or [pda] with a link? My thoughts are if I could send a ID with a link and return that ID back then I know how to associate the [upa] or [pda] with that particular link. Anyone know?

Linking Moz with Excel to compare links enmass
Hi all, I'm looking for a solution which will allow me to sort a list of links by pagerank. There seems to be a couple of solutions online but neither work for me due to various updates since they were created. Can anyone give me a solution which will work today - Perhaps using Google Sheets/Excel? I have a Moz Pro subscription. Thanks, Sam

Does Moz's crawlers use _escaped_fragment_ to inspect pages on a single-page application?
I just got started, but got a 902 error code on some pages, with a message saying there might be an outage on my site. That's certainly not the case, so I'm wondering if the crawlers actually respect and use the escaped_fragment query parameter. Thanks, David.
