Hi - thanks for reaching out to us.
In Postman, if you click on raw instead of form-data in Body, you can get results using the syntax found here: https://moz.com/help/links-api/making-calls/url-metrics. In your example, you could write:
{
"targets":["facebook.com"]
}
This should successfully return results for you. If you continue to run into issues, I would suggest reaching out to support at help@moz.com.
thanks!

Error Code 803
Hello all, With every new Moz report that comes in, an error code 803 appears. I check each link that comes up as an 803 but they work perfectly. What could be causing this to happen? Error Code 803: Incomplete HTTP Response Received Your page did not send a complete response to the Moz Crawler's request. Our crawler is pretty standard, so it's likely that other browsers and crawlers may also encounter this error. If you have this error on your homepage, it prevents the Moz crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site.

Moz crawl error? DA & Linking domains significant drop.
Hi guys! Our site www.carwow.co.uk appears to have been punched in the face by the latest Moz update. It's claiming our #linking root domains has dropped from 225 to 135 and has subsequently hit our DA from 38 to 35. We haven't disavowed any links and our off-site strategy has been going well the past 2 months. Search performance has increased by around 15% (around 5k sessions) and rankings have improved week on week. Any idea if this is a Moz error? That's almost a 50% drop in linking root domains. Thanks, James

Huge in crease in on page errors
Hi guys I’ve just checked my online campaign and I see errors in my crawl diagnostics have almost doubled from the 21<sup>st</sup> of October to the 25<sup>th</sup> of October going from 6708 errors to 11 599. Can anyone tell me what may have caused this? Also I notice we have a lot of issues with duplicate page titles which seems strange as no new pages have been added, can anyone explain why this might be? I look forward to hearing from you
