Why a Public API — and Why Now?

Website management has changed. Teams don’t work inside a single tool anymore. They orchestrate across project management platforms, CI/CD pipelines, reporting dashboards, CMS systems, and custom internal tools. The websites themselves are more complex — multi-domain, multi-language, dynamic JavaScript-rendered applications that need continuous monitoring.

Our users have been clear: they love what DYNO Mapper does, but they need it to fit into a broader ecosystem. They want to trigger crawls from a deployment pipeline, pull content inventory data into a data warehouse, feed accessibility scores into executive dashboards, and automate keyword tracking reports that land in Slack every Monday morning.

The Public API makes all of that possible.

What’s Inside: 9 Modules, 75 Endpoints

The API covers the full breadth of the DYNO Mapper platform. Here’s a high-level overview of what you can access programmatically.

Projects & Sitemaps

The foundation of every DYNO Mapper workflow. Create and manage projects, trigger crawls with custom configurations, and retrieve the complete sitemap hierarchy — including page metadata, parent-child relationships, and HTTP status codes. If you’ve ever wanted to spin up a new project and start crawling the moment a staging environment goes live, this is where you start.

Content Inventory

Access your complete content inventory through the API. Retrieve detailed page-level data including titles, meta descriptions, word counts, images, documents, and internal linking structures. Filter and search programmatically to find exactly what you need — whether that’s every PDF on a domain, all pages returning 404s, or content that hasn’t been updated in six months.

Content Audit

Pull content audit results and Content Quality Scores for any project. Identify issues at scale, track remediation progress over time, and integrate audit findings into your team’s existing task management or ticketing system. No more exporting CSVs and manually importing them elsewhere.

Accessibility Testing

Retrieve WCAG compliance test results, Accessibility Scores, and detailed issue reports for known, likely, and potential problems. Schedule and trigger tests programmatically, making it straightforward to bake accessibility checks into your release process. With the EU Accessibility Act now in effect and ADA compliance requirements tightening, having API-driven accessibility monitoring is no longer a nice-to-have — it’s essential.

Visibility & Keyword Tracking

Access Visibility Scores, keyword rankings across Google, Yahoo, and Bing, position movement data, and average position metrics. Filter by device, locale, or keyword group. Build custom dashboards, generate automated client reports, or feed ranking data into your broader SEO analytics stack.

Analytics Integration

Retrieve Google Analytics metrics associated with your projects. Page-level analytics data that’s already mapped to your sitemap structure — meaning you can correlate traffic patterns with site architecture decisions without stitching data together manually.

Assignments & Collaboration

Manage assignments, comments, and team workflows through the API. Create tasks from audit or accessibility findings, update statuses, and track who’s responsible for what. Teams running content operations at scale can now connect DYNO Mapper’s assignment system to their project management tools.

User & Account Management

Handle team management, permissions, and account-level operations programmatically. Useful for agencies managing multiple client accounts or enterprises with complex role-based access requirements.

V.A.C.Q. Score®

The V.A.C.Q. Score — our proprietary Website Health Benchmark combining Visibility, Accessibility, and Content Quality — is available through the API. Track how your website’s overall health evolves over time, compare scores across properties, and set up automated alerts when scores drop below acceptable thresholds.

Real-World Use Cases

The API isn’t just for developers building custom integrations. It opens up practical workflows that save teams real time.

Agencies managing dozens of client sites can automate monthly reporting. Pull V.A.C.Q. Scores, accessibility compliance status, and keyword rankings for every client into a templated report — generated and delivered without anyone logging into the platform.

Enterprise web teams can integrate crawls into their CI/CD pipeline. When a new build deploys to staging, automatically trigger a DYNO Mapper crawl, run an accessibility test, and flag any regressions before the build goes to production.

SEO professionals can feed DYNO Mapper’s content inventory and keyword tracking data into their preferred analytics platforms. Combine it with data from other sources to build a unified view of site health and search performance.

Content strategists can connect content audit findings directly to their task management system. When DYNO Mapper identifies a broken link, an outdated page, or a missing meta description, an issue gets created automatically in Jira, Asana, or wherever the team works.

Compliance officers can set up automated accessibility monitoring with alerts. Instead of manually running tests and exporting reports, the API enables continuous compliance tracking with real-time notifications when new issues surface.

Getting Started

Getting up and running is straightforward.

1. Get your API key. API access is available to active DYNO Mapper subscribers. You’ll find your key in your account settings.

1. Read the documentation. The full API reference at api.dynomapper.com/reference includes detailed endpoint descriptions, request/response examples, and authentication instructions.

1. Make your first call. Start by listing your projects, then try pulling a content inventory or triggering a crawl. The API follows RESTful conventions, so if you’ve worked with any modern API, you’ll feel right at home.

1. Build from there. Whether it’s a simple script that emails you a weekly accessibility summary or a full integration into your internal tooling — the API gives you the building blocks.
