      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!

                      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 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.

                      Is Moz's rank checker driving referals (and bounces) in my analytics?

                      I see 200+ referral visits per month from "rank-checker.online" and they all bounce with one second session durations.  Are these bounces hurting my SEO?  They are definitely distorting my referral metrics.  Can I block them somehow?

                      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.

                      Pulling large amounts of data from moz api

                      Hi i'm looking to pull large amounts of data from the moz and semrush api. I have been using seotools addon for excel to extract data but excel is slow, sometimes crashes and not very reliable. Can anyone recommend any other tools i can use, to pull huge amounts of data? Any suggestions would be highly appreciated! Cheers, RM

                      Any idea why HubSpot (which uses the MOZ api) can find our backlinks but OSE can not?

                      Links are showing up in the HubSpot link tool within a couple of days. OSE has our site showing zero backlinks. ahrefs is finding them too but that makes more sense. Does the API update more frequently than OSE? Any thoughts? Thanks!

                      Rankings Tool

                      I'm looking for a way to track the rankings of a single keyword per domain for about 100 domains. What would be the best way to accomplish this? It's just internal tracking in excel right now, which I'm fine if it stays that way. I would just prefer not to have to hand update it every week. My initial guess is Moz API? If so, are their sample scripts? If not, then is there another tool that can handle this better? example: Domain             Keyword           Rank
                      acme.com         ACME                 3
                      cars.com           cars                    2
                      etc....
