Get discovered and lost linking domains separately
-
Hello,
We want to get "discovered and lost links" using api.
You do not have discovered and lost metrics available via the Links API and 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!

Hi there! Thanks for the question.
You are correct - at this time the API does not offer a way to call information about Discovered and Lost Links. Link Explorer and the index that supports it, including the API connection, are pretty new and still in beta testing. However, this is a call the team would like to add in the future, so keep an eye out!
Please let us know if you have any other questions, or any other features you are interested in seeing added. Thanks!

Unsolved Feature to add to my site to give people a domain score for their own site
Looking to add a feature on my website to invite people to submit their domain to get an SEO score (and a report). How do I do that? I think it involves the Moz API but not sure.

Unknown data items in Links API response
So I'm on the documentation page at https://moz.com/help/links-api/making-calls/url-metrics . I've copied the bit fields table into a spreadsheet. I've removed all the "deprecated" items and have totalled up the remaining items making a Cols= value of 182537205900657000. For want of better knowledge, I've used that same value for LinkCols=, SourceCols= and TargetCols=. The request url ends up being (anonymized): http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/links/fordanddoonan.com.au?Cols=182537205900657000&AccessID=xxx&Expires=1557458487346&Signature=xxx&SourceCols=182537205900657000&TargetCols=182537205900657000&LinkCols=182537205900657000&Limit=1000&Scope=page_to_domain&Filter=external My question is, what do I make of all the extra fields that I get in the json packet what should I do to remove them? These extra fields are: lrid, lsrc, ltgt, luufq, luueid, lufeid, luujid, luumrp, luumrr, luflan, lufspf, lufsplc, lufspp, lufsps, lufspsc, luus, lufuid, lupuid, lufipl, luupa, lupda, luued, lufed, luped, lupib, luulc, flan, fspf, fsplc, fspp, fsps Is it simply a case of limiting the values of TargetCols, LinkCols and SourceCols? If so, to what?

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 -
