Unsolved How to get Domain Authority using API ?
-
I wanted to test the API and while looking on the documentation urls, I cannot find details on how to get Domain Authority.
- is that not available to query ?
- was it replaced by Brand Authority ?
- is it only available for the paid API or for the free one too ?
I looked at many documentation pages but I find it very confusing and frustrating, there are many versions of the documentation and various URLs and not clearly labeled, I understand some are V1, V2, V3, etc, but I didn't find sample API calls for Domain Authority.
Thank you.

To get Domain Authority (DA) using an API, you can use services from providers like Moz, Ahrefs, or Semrush, which offer APIs that include domain authority and similar metrics. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to get Domain Authority using the Moz API, one of the most popular tools for this metric:
- Register for a Moz API Key
Go to the Moz API page at Moz API.
Sign up for an account and generate an Access ID and Secret Key. You’ll need these credentials to authenticate your API requests. - Make an API Request to Retrieve Domain Authority
The Moz API’s Link Explorer endpoint can provide Domain Authority data.
- Register for a Moz API Key

You can get Domain Authority using APIs like Moz, SEMrush, or Ahrefs by integrating their API with your system.

SEMrush: They provide a different metric, “Authority Score,” which is available via API with a SEMrush subscription.
Free Domain Authority Checkers: Some free tools offer DA lookups, but they may not provide API access without premium plans. -
Hi there @adrianTNT
Sorry for the confusion, we have new shiny methods to call DA being released shortly, until then you can use the current V2 API - https://mza.bundledseo.com/help/links-api/making-calls/url-metricsWe have more info on using the Moz API and limits here https://mza.bundledseo.com/help/links-api

"How can I find Domain Authority details through the API?"
Or, if you want a more detailed question:
"Is Domain Authority available to query through the API, or has Brand Authority replaced it? I checked multiple documentation versions (V1, V2, V3, etc.) but couldn't find a clear answer. Could you clarify if Domain Authority is only accessible via a paid API, and provide sample API calls for it if available?"
This should encourage a clear response on whether Domain Authority is supported, if Brand Authority is a replacement and details on the access level required.

Although the future API of the question of "URL Metrics", I want you to forgive me English is very immature thing. I'm very troubled now.
If you call the "API" in the manner described below, such PHP of the program, "403 Forbidden" is the result.
Because the information when you visit the URL directly is displayed, we suspect the PHP of the problem.
About the cause, it will be saved in a very and Nowak advice.
Whether Thank you. code $accessID = "<removed for="" privacy="">";
$secretKey = "<removed for="" privacy="">";
$expires = time() + 300;
$SignInStr = $accessID. "\n" .$expires;
$binarySignature = hash_hmac('sha1', $SignInStr, $secretKey, true);
$SafeSignature = urlencode(base64_encode($binarySignature));
$objURL = "http://www.google.com";
$flags = "103079217188";
$reqUrl = "http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/url-metrics/".urlencode($objURL)."?Cols=".$cols."&AccessID=".$accessID."&Expires=".$expires."&Signature=".$SafeSignature;
$opts = array(CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true);
$curlhandle = curl_init($reqUrl);
curl_setopt_array($curlhandle, $opts);
$content = curl_exec($curlhandle);
curl_close($curlhandle);
$resObj = json_decode($content); //decode the json object and fetch results
echo $reqUrl . "

echo "Domain Authority : " . $resObj->{'pda'};
echo "Page Authority : " . $resObj->{'upa'};

Domain Authority drop due to Moz update?
Hi guys, I have noticed an unusual Domain Authority (DA) drop in mid November for many different websites here in Sweden. There was a Moz update the 12th of November which I assume has to do with this drop. I have attached the DA history chart to visualize the drop. Does someone have any information about: Did the drop in DA have to do with the update the 12<sup>th</sup>? Did the new update have a new type of metric calculation? Is anyone else experiencing this drop? Any extra details would be helpful. Thanks a lot guys. YLhKVwF.png
