# Links API V1 is deprecated

Moz Links API deprecated /linkscape/* without giving a shutdown date yet.

The provider deprecated the legacy Links API V1 without a shutdown date. This deprecation affects all requests to lsapi.seomoz.com on the /linkscape/* endpoints. Calls to these legacy endpoints fail.

## What to use instead

Switch to the current Moz API using POST api.moz.com/jsonrpc, such as the data.site.metrics.fetch call. Moving to the replacement requires more than changing an identifier, as it requires a separate Moz API token and a JSON-RPC request format.

The current Moz API takes its own API token and a JSON-RPC request shape.
