      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 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.

        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 all

        What 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.

            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!

            Is everybody seeing DA/PA-drops after last MOZ-api update?

            Hi all, I was wondering what happend at the last MOZ-update. The MOZ-health page has no current errors and i've checked a lot of websites probably about 50 a 60 from our customers and from our competitiors and everybody seems to have a decrease in DA's / PA's. Not just a couple went up and down like normally would happen, but all seems to have dropped.... Is anyone seeing the same in their campaigns? Greetings,
            Niels

            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 there a reports Api?

            hello fellow Mozers.  got a question.  is anyone aware of an api coming out to feed individual reports?  We have a crm to manage all of our clients, and I'd love to feed the new moz analytics directly into our system. Please let me know if it already exists, is in the works, etc. Thanks, Stephan

            Can i export data from my current account to a new account?

            Situation:
            I want to create a new account, but i don't want to lose data from my current account. Is there any possibility for exporting my data (to an excel document or something) that i can import in my new account later? If there is an option to export data directly to my new account that would be nice.. Kind Regards.
