API for discovered and lost linking domains
-
Hello,
Currently you do not have discovered and lost metrics available via the Links API, maybe there are some workaround to get this metrics? For us, it is very important to use API, or calculate it some mathematics way.
Thank!

yes, thank you:)
but if we call api for backlinks and then cross reference this with the links found the last time, we are able to get only NET links, but we want to get "just discovered and lost links" separately.
for example: inbound links for 27 July is 600, inbound links for 30 July is 750, okay, NET links from 27 July to 30 July = 750-600=150.And in this case "discovered and lost links" maybe: 400 and -250, 300 and -150, 150 and 0, and etc. Maybe I can not understand something, give example please.
Thank you!

Hi there,
Jo here from the Moz help team.
The best way to get this data would be to set up your app to call our API for backlinks, and then cross reference this with the links found the last time your made your call to identify lost and discovered links.
Your programer should be able to let you know more about how to do this.
If there is anything else I can help you with please do let me know.
Cheers!
Jo

Unsolved Moz API returning incorrect PA data
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 9.41.43 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!0 -
Can the API give the same data as the UI?
What I mean is, I'm not that interested in counts. What I'd like to figure out is how to get the API to give me what the UI gives me , so that for a given target domain I can download a report with the following fields: URL
API | | StevePoul
Title
Anchor Text
Spam Score
PA
DA
Linking Domains to Page
Target URL
Link Type
Link State
Date First Seen
Date Last Seen
Date Lost
HTTP Status Code
Links to Page
Outbound Domains from Page
Outbound Links from Page
Operator profile That's essentially the same as a CSV report generated by clicking on the "Export CSV" button. I could ,I suppose, get someone to write something in Selenium to enter a domain, click on the button and hang around on the notifications page for the results but I'd really rather not.1 -
Mozscape API Updates (Non-updates!) - becoming a joke!
This is the 3rd month in succession where the Mozscape index has been delayed. Myself and clients are losing patience with this, as I am sure many others must be. Just what do you suppose we tell clients waiting for that data? We have incomplete and sometimes skewed metrics to report on, delays which then get delayed further, with nothing but the usual 'we are working on it' and 'bear with us'. It's becoming obvious you fudged the index update back in January (see discussion here with some kind of explanation finally from Rand: https://moz.com/community/q/is-everybody-seeing-da-pa-drops-after-last-moz-api-update), and seems you have been fumbling around ever since trying to fix it, with data all over the place, shifting DA scores and missing links from campaign data. Your developers should be working around the clock to fix this, because this is a big part of what you're selling in your service, and as SEO's and marketers we are relying on that data for client retention and satisfaction. Will you refund us all if we should lose clients over this?! .. I don't think so! With reports already sent out the beginning of the month with incomplete data, I told clients the index would refresh April 10th as informed from the API updates page, only to see it fudged again on day of release with the index being rolled back to previous. So again, I have to tell clients there will be more delays, ...with the uncertainty of IF it WILL EVEN get refreshed when you say it will. It's becoming a joke.. really!

What happens if I go over my Mozscape api free limits?
Hello,
API | | FPK
I just started using the free version of Mozscape and I fully understand there are limits and charges under this category. However to avoid any costly surprises, I like to know:
What happens when I get near my usage limit?
What happens when I just hit the limit?
What happens when I past the limit? Along with my questions, Is there any alert systems to let me know when I get to the range of said limit, like an email?0 -
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
