Semrush Backlinks

• targetstring

  Required
  The target for which to retrieve backlink data. This can be a root domain, a subdomain, or a specific URL.
• target_typestring

  Required
  The type of the specified target. Must be one of 'root_domain' (e.g., 'example.com'), 'domain' (e.g., 'sub.example.com', includes subdomains), or 'url' (a specific page address).
• display_sortstring
  Column and order for sorting backlink results.
• display_limitinteger
  Maximum number of backlinks to retrieve. If set to 0, it defaults to 10,000. The actual number returned is `max(0, display_limit - display_offset)`. For large domains, use conservative values and apply `display_filter` to avoid oversized responses.
• display_filterarray
  Filters to apply for refining backlink results (e.g., `['newlink']` for new, `['lostlink']` for lost).
• display_offsetinteger
  Number of initial backlinks to skip. To get N backlinks after offset O, set `display_offset` to O and `display_limit` to O+N.
• export_columnsarray
  Columns to include in the exported backlink data. Defaults to all available columns if not specified. An empty list may result in API-specific default columns or an error.

  Data from the action execution
• errorstring
  Error if any occurred during the execution of the action
