The individual inbound links to one target, one row per link. Returns total_count, items_count, items and a search_after_token for paging - use that rather than offset past the first few pages. mode and custom_mode control grouping, backlinks_status_type selects live, lost or all. Measured at 2.5 KB for one link. Wrapped in DataForSEO’s envelope: data in tasks[0].result, outcome in tasks[0].status_code - a rejected request still returns HTTP 200. For counts rather than rows use post_dataforseo_backlinks_summary_live; for the linking domains grouped, post_dataforseo_backlinks_referring_domains_live. Keep limit low and do not loop.

//   Cursor / VS Code   a "url" entry for https://mcp.aisa.one/mcp in the MCP config
// The server reaches https://mcp.aisa.one/servers worth of APIs through a few meta
// tools: search, list_categories, get_details, batch_quote, batch_use.
// search, get_details and batch_quote are free; batch_use is billed per
// call. This operation's full contract — every argument, the response
// shape, the price and the pitfalls — is at
//   https://aisa.one/docs/api-reference/dataforseo/post_dataforseo-backlinks-backlinks-live.md
// Show me the quoted cost. Once I approve, run the same calls with
// batch_use and show me the result.

First time? Point any MCP client at https://mcp.aisa.one/mcp — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code and the rest. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser, you click Allow once, and there is no key to paste. Your agent then reaches every endpoint through a few meta tools: search, list_categories, get_details and batch_quote are free, batch_use is billed per call. Setup per client is in Connect via MCP; the live tool list and what each call costs are on aisa.one/mcp.

Cost and request rules

Usage-based billing; Default request estimate: $0.06 USD (not a fixed price). Account-specific pricing and final settlement may differ. Published reference values are not an account-specific quote or a settled charge. For endpoints supporting X-AISA-Cost-Mode: quote, obtain a free quote for your exact request before execution; reconcile the settled cost with response metadata and Usage Logs. USD amounts use 1,000,000 integer micro-USD per dollar.

Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

Bearer authentication header of the form Bearer <token>, where <token> is your auth token.

Body

application/json

backlinks_status_type

string | null

set what backlinks to return and count
optional field
you can use this field to choose what backlinks will be returned and used for aggregated metrics for your target;
possible values:
all - all backlinks will be returned and counted;
live - backlinks found during the last check will be returned and counted;
lost - lost backlinks will be returned and counted;

default value: live

custom_mode

object | null

detailed results grouping type
optional field
use this object to get a specific number of backlinks per field
if you use custom_mode, then mode will be ignored
example:
"custom_mode": {"field": "domain", "value": 100}

Show child attributes

exclude_internal_backlinks

boolean | null

indicates if internal backlinks from subdomains to the target will be excluded from the results
optional field
if set to true, the results will not include data on internal backlinks from subdomains of the same domain as target
if set to false, internal links will be included in the results
default value: true

filters

array of results filtering parameters
optional field
you can add several filters at once (8 filters maximum)
you should set a logical operator and, or between the conditions
the following operators are supported:
=, <>, in, not_in, like, not_like, ilike, not_ilike, regex, not_regex, match, not_match
you can use the % operator with like and not_like to match any string of zero or more characters
example:
["rank",">","80"]

[["page_from_rank",">","55"], "and", ["dofollow","=",true]]

[["first_seen",">","2017-10-23 11:31:45 +00:00"], "and", [["anchor","like","%seo%"],"or",["text_pre","like","%seo%"]]]

The full list of possible filters is available here.

JSON representation of filter values and nested expressions. Field names, operators, condition counts and operand compatibility remain provider-validated as documented for each endpoint; this is not a complete filter-language validator.

include_subdomains

boolean | null

indicates if the subdomains of the target will be included in the search
optional field
if set to false, the subdomains will be ignored
default value: true

limit

integer | null

the maximum number of returned backlinks
optional field

default value: 100
maximum value: 1000

mode

string | null

results grouping type
optional field
possible grouping types:
as_is - returns all backlinks
one_per_domain - returns one backlink per domain
one_per_anchor - returns one backlink per anchor

default value: as_is

offset

integer | null

offset in the results array of the returned backlinks
optional field

default value: 0
if you specify the 10 value, the first ten backlinks in the results array will be omitted and the data will be provided for the successive backlinks;
Note: the maximum value is 20,000, use the search_after_token if you would like to offset more results

order_by

string[] | null

results sorting rules
optional field
you can use the same values as in the filters array to sort the results
possible sorting types:
asc - results will be sorted in the ascending order
desc - results will be sorted in the descending order
you should use a comma to set up a sorting type
example:
["rank,desc"]
note that you can set no more than three sorting rules in a single request
you should use a comma to separate several sorting rules
example:
["domain_from_rank,desc","page_from_rank,asc"]

rank_scale

string | null

defines the scale used for calculating and displaying the rank, domain_from_rank, and page_from_rank values
optional field

you can use this parameter to choose whether rank values are presented on a 0–100 or 0–1000 scale

possible values:
one_hundred — rank values are displayed on a 0–100 scale
one_thousand — rank values are displayed on a 0–1000 scale

default value: one_thousand

search_after_token

string | null

token for subsequent requests
optional field
provided in the identical filed of the response to each request;
use this parameter to avoid timeouts while trying to obtain over 20,000 results in a single request;
by specifying the unique search_after_token value from the response array, you will get the subsequent results of the initial task;
search_after_token values are unique for each subsequent task ;
Note: if the search_after_token is specified in the request, all other parameters should be identical to the previous request

tag

string | null

user-defined task identifier
optional field
the character limit is 255
you can use this parameter to identify the task and match it with the result
you will find the specified tag value in the data object of the response

target

string

domain, subdomain or webpage to get backlinks for
required field
