Seo moz api request problem [401 error_message Your authentication failed]
-
Hello Team,
I have moz pro account.
I'm getting following error for seomoz call using your API:
{"status":"401","error_message":"Your authentication failed. Check your authentication details and try again. For more information on signed authentication, see: http://apiwiki.moz.com/signed-authentication"}
The link that we are using is:
http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/url-metrics/And following bits are requested during the call:
- 68719476736
- 34359738368
- 32
- 2048
- 16384
The error is intermittent. It comes and goes. There were no issues with results 3 days ago. I suddenly started getting this error. Could you please investigate into it and let me know the cause of issues and its correctiveness.
It will great if you can provide us a support email Id for immediate response.
Thanks,

Hey There,
I am so sorry you ran into this issue with the API. Due to an incredibly heavy traffic volume on the Mozscape index, one of our servers crashed, causing an outage in the tools that pull data from the index. The issue has been fixed and you should be able to access the tool with no issues now.
Please give that a try and let us know if you need any other assistance.

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,

Mozscape API - Keyword Rankings?
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?

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

Use of Moz with non-latin characters
Hey there, I am new member with Moz and i have to say that you are doing very good job. Three days ago, i have learnt that the On-page Grader and On-Page Optimization tools are useless for me because i am using no-latin keywords (greek characters) in order to optimize my SEO. From that moment i dont know how to properly use moz pro in order to optimize my SEO score (if this still can be done) so i would like to ask: Without these two powerfull tools how can i use the Moz Pro in order to optimize my (greek) website? Is this possible to do it with out these two tools? should i try to do it manually? if yes what i have to read/learn in order to do it manually? What other tools can i use in order to help me rank my website instead of On-Page grader and optimization? Thanks in advance
