      Hi, I'm using the free access to the Mozscape API and while I'm still a novice about what data the Mozscape API can pull I can't seem to figure how to pull the keyword rankings for my campaigns. I reviewed https://moz.com/help/guides/moz-api/mozscape/api-reference/url-metrics but can't seem to find what value I need to call.

      Can someone guide me in the right direction or is this something only the paid version has access to?

        Hello Ian-- It's been a few years since this post, I'm curious for updates! Does the Mozscape API include search volume yet? Are there plans to? I've been struggling to write a scraper that would do this for me, an API would certainly simplify things.

          Hi Ian -- Wanted to check back on status of the API for keyword data (including rankings).  Is this something that is still planned?  Any timeframe?  I'm getting ready to embark on a project to import rankings data into our internal dashboard tool, and I'm wondering if I'll be forever stuck with manually importing .csv files.  Thanks in advance for any updates you can provide!

          -John

            Great to hear the product is adding new features and that the API support for rank checking is in the backlog.  Love the functionality, but the service does not scale without volume rank checking.  I can work with the current export functionality, but the API will help automate tasks to support more customers.  I'll stay tuned for the updates.

              We have been working to get a new large piece of functionality out for the Keyword Explorer tool, this has lead to a delay in the External API for our Keyword data. This new feature is in the homestretch and once that is complete, exposing that data is the next step.

                  Hi, It's a year later, and I was researching the same issue.  Can you confirm if there is a Keyword Explorer API for pro subscribers?  Thanks.

                    Hey There,

                    Unfortunately Keywords Data is not available via the Mozscape API. The Mozscape API houses the data from our Index, which is centered around Links Data and our Metrics derived from that data (Domain Authority, Page Authority, MozRank, etc). We do have a Keywords API that is not yet up on our website, however there is no Free Access for it at this time.

                    If you have any other questions about the Mozscape or Keywords API, feel free to reach out to me at IanW@Moz.com.

                    Cheers!

                    Ian Watson - Moz APIs

                      Unsolved MOZ API for domain authority

                      api da

                      I am using the MOZ API to check domain authority (DA). Recently, I noticed a discrepancy: the DA value retrieved via the API differs from the result on the MOZ homepage. Specifically, the API returns a DA of 10, while the homepage shows "NO DATA." Additionally, other services like Ahrefs report a DA of 0. I relied on the MOZ API's result when purchasing this domain and now feel misled. I would like to understand the exact reason for this inconsistency.

                      Unsolved Regarding Moz API token password update

                      moz api access token

                      Hi, In March we have updated password for MOZ API and used in our application it worked, but currently the updated password is not working and in the MOZ site the old password is shown and its active. We are using Legacy username and password.
                      We see that 5 tokens can be added for API, if we add 2 tokens both will be active.
                      We are currently using free services. Please help us resolve this issue.

                      api url metrics v1

                      Hi! On one of our servers we get the message "The account does not have access to that quota" when pulling data for v1 URL Metrics endpoint in the API.
                      This only happens on one specific server, others have worked flawlessly. Any idea of what might be going on? Thanks

                      api

                      Good afternoon. I tried connecting free access to api https://moz.com/help/links-api/v1-archive/v1-free-api-access to retrieve DA data. After several requests to the api I got a message: "Your monthly row limit reached" Can you tell me what this error is related to? Or Moz doesn't have free api access anymore?

                      Unsolved Moz API returning incorrect PA data

                      api page authority

                      So I've been attempting to figure out Moz API to allow for batches of URLs to be searched and the data to be nicely put into a google sheet. I've setup the MOZ API for sheets add-on and everything appears to work, but after spot checking some of my data, I've found that for some reason, the page authority data returned by Moz API appears to be way off the actual number presented by other Moz tools, such as the tool bar and main site.
                      Screenshot 2023-06-01 at 9.38.25 AM.png
                      Screenshot 2023-06-01 at 9.41.43 AM.png As you can see, in this one example off my list, the returned PA value is 6 points lower than the value returned from the Moz tool bar and website analysis.
                      If the data returned is incorrect, how is Moz API useful? Am I missing something? Would love some help or advice, as this tool would be very useful in a functioning state!

                      How can I get "Date First Seen","Date Last Seen" and "Date Lost" from the API?

                      "Date First Seen","Date Last Seen" and "Date Lost"  are columns in the CSV exported from LinkExplorer's Inbound Links page. How do I get that data from the API?

                      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
