API Documentation

The Bing Webmaster API document starts here, but it gets a little confusing. For example, as you navigate around, you will see three similar, but different, navigation nodes. As you navigate around, they seem to appear and disappear, which can be a bit confusing.

This is the Keyword Research tool hidden inside Bing’s Webmaster Tools interface. The Bing keyword API returns the historical broad-match and strict-match impressions for the specified keyword term. Use it for competitive research and to find new campaign keyword terms for your own use.

For some reason, they decided to use the ASP.NET AJAX / WCF Web Services date format (“/Date(1399100400000-0700)/”) for the Bing Webmaster API JSON response instead of the more conventional ISO 8601 format (“2014-05-02T11:23:31.324Z”) used in the XML response.

Returns the list of websites registered with Bing Webmaster Tools. You’ll probably need this to populate a picklist for subsequent commands, since most commands rely on the siteUrl. There are no parameters (other than your API key).

Gets traffic statistics (Clicks and Impressions counts by day) for the specified siteUrl. This would typically be used to create a small trend chart at the top of a report, like in the Search Performance report online.

Gets detailed traffic statistics for your top pages — this is the contents of the Search Performance report in the web interface.

Get detailed traffic statistics for top queries. This is data from the Search Performance report in the web interface.
