Implementation Reference

• src/core/modules/backlinks/tools/backlinks-referring-networks.tool.ts:76-90 (handler)

  The handle method implements the core tool logic: formats input parameters, makes a POST request to DataForSEO's '/v3/backlinks/referring_networks/live' endpoint, validates/formats the response or handles errors.

  async handle(params: any): Promise<any> {
    try {
      const response = await this.client.makeRequest('/v3/backlinks/referring_networks/live', 'POST', [{
        target: params.target,
        limit: params.limit,
        offset: params.offset,
        filters: this.formatFilters(params.filters),
        order_by: this.formatOrderBy(params.order_by),
        network_address_type: params.network_address_type
      }]);
      return this.validateAndFormatResponse(response);
    } catch (error) {
      return this.formatErrorResponse(error);
    }
  }

• src/core/modules/backlinks/tools/backlinks-referring-networks.tool.ts:18-74 (schema)

  Defines the Zod schema for input parameters: target (required), network_address_type, limit, offset, filters, order_by with detailed descriptions and constraints.

    getParams(): z.ZodRawShape {
      return {
        target: z.string().describe(`domain, subdomain or webpage to get backlinks for
          required field
  a domain or a subdomain should be specified without https:// and www.
  a page should be specified with absolute URL (including http:// or https://)`),
        network_address_type: z.string().optional().default('ip').describe(`indicates the type of network to get data for
  optional field
  possible values: ip, subnet
  default value: ip`),
        limit: z.number().min(1).max(1000).default(10).optional().describe("the maximum number of returned networks"),
        offset: z.number().min(0).optional().describe(
          `offset in the results array of returned networks
  optional field
  default value: 0
  if you specify the 10 value, the first ten domains in the results array will be omitted and the data will be provided for the successive pages`
        ),
        filters: z.array(
          z.union([
            z.array(z.union([z.string(), z.number(), z.boolean()])).length(3),
            z.enum(["and", "or"])
          ])
        ).max(8).optional().describe(
          `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:
  regex, not_regex, =, <>, in, not_in, like, not_like, ilike, not_ilike, match, not_match
  you can use the % operator with like and not_like to match any string of zero or more characters
  example:
  ["referring_pages",">","1"]
  [["referring_pages",">","2"],
  "and",
  ["backlinks",">","10"]]
  
  [["first_seen",">","2017-10-23 11:31:45 +00:00"],
  "and",
  [["network_address","like","194.1.%"],"or",["referring_ips",">","10"]]]`
        ),
        order_by: z.array(z.string()).optional().describe(
          `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:
  ["backlinks,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:
  ["backlinks,desc","rank,asc"]`
        ),
      };
    }

• src/core/modules/backlinks/backlinks-api.module.ts:45-45 (registration)

  Instantiates BacklinksReferringNetworksTool in the getTools() method of BacklinksApiModule. The tool is then registered in the returned object using its getName() as key, with description, params, and wrapped handle function.

  new BacklinksReferringNetworksTool(this.dataForSEOClient),

• src/core/modules/backlinks/tools/backlinks-filters.tool.ts:30-30 (helper)

  Maps the tool name 'backlinks_referring_networks' to the API response path 'referring_networks' in TOOL_TO_FILTER_MAP, used by BacklinksFiltersTool to provide filter information for this endpoint.

  'backlinks_referring_networks': 'referring_networks',
