How to use Domain Authority
What Domain Authority takes in, which fields it returns and how credits are charged for each lookup.
What it does
A 0 to 100 authority score for a domain, with every input shown: its Common Crawl web graph harmonic centrality and PageRank positions and its Majestic Million rank and referring subnets. Only domains inside the top of the open rank lists are scored; an unranked domain is not proof of low authority. It is a link-graph score, not Moz or Semrush authority.
What you send
Send these fields in the JSON body of the request.
| Field | Type | Required | Limits |

| domain | string | Required | up to 253 characters |
