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
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 profileThat'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.

Ok, some specifics:
Today I downloaded moz-inbound-links-for-fordanddoonan_com_au-2019-05-07_06_29_56_307340Z.csv. I has a header as follows:
Inbound Links for fordanddoonan.com.au
Scope pld
Sorted by source_page_authority
Filters: external+not_deleted
Anchor text all
Source PLD allWhat API scope matches the one given in the header namely "pld"?
Please also point me to the place in the documentation where a filter of "not_deleted" can be specified, as the header has "not_deleted" as a Filter attribute but I can't see that in any of the documentation.
I do need some hand-holding here. I'm trying to use the API to generate a moz-inbound-links report but I'm not at all sure where to start.

Unsolved MOZ API for domain authority
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.

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 -
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

Integrate Piwik data with Moz instead of Google Analytics?
Hello everyone, The company I work for had Google Analytics for all of our websites, dating back at least 4 years. Because of our email infrastructure, we accessed Analytics through a temporary account. Now this account worked fine for 4 years, until over the last two weeks where at some point Google deleted that account, and the Analytics connected to it. I've had no response from Google regarding this, but that's by the by. Anyway, I've made the decision to bring the analytics in house and hold the data ourselves. I've chosen Piwik for this, and it's been running fine for the last few days. However, I know Moz integrates with Google Analytics, but at the moment this is useless to me. Is there a way, or are there any plans, to integrate Piwik with Moz? If not, what benefits will I lose if I discontinue using Google Analytics with Moz?
