Set this endpoint up in your agent →
target’s backlink profile as it stood on each date in a range, with date_from, date_to and one item per point. Measured at 4.1 KB for two months - the largest response in this family, because each point repeats a full metric set. Wrapped in DataForSEO’s envelope: data in tasks[0].result, outcome in tasks[0].status_code - a rejected request still returns HTTP 200. For the current profile only use post_dataforseo_backlinks_summary_live. For a lighter time series, post_dataforseo_backlinks_timeseries_summary_live reports fewer metrics per point. This one takes no limit parameter, so the only lever is calling it less often.
