V1 URL Metrics

URL Metrics [Archive of V1 Endpoints]

This guide outlines the endpoints for now archived Moz Links API endpoints. The new Moz Links API endpoints are available here.

The url-metrics endpoint returns metrics for a URL or set of URLs you specify. Use the Cols parameter to specify which metrics to return; enter the sum of the bit flag values for each metric.

For a single URL, use a GET request—the typical Moz Links format, with all information contained in the body of a single URL. Use batched calls for more than one URL.

The Moz Links API Response fields help you organize the information returned.

URL Metrics Values for Cols

The Cols parameter uses bit flags to specify which URL metrics are returned by the Moz Links API. You can specify more than one URL metric by adding bit flags together and entering the sum as the Cols value. For example, to receive both page title and canonical URL form, enter Cols=5 (1 + 4).
