Import urls from api url?

mcscappum

I have a few blog networks on rankwyz that generate about 100 blog posts per day total. Rankwyz provides a url of all the blog post urls that were made on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Is there any way to import all these blog post urls into GSA? I see that macros do not work in the URL field. It would be great to be able to auto import these urls on a daily basis with a macro or "import from url" option.

Is there any chance this can happen? Having to manually import urls can get tedious with a lot of projects going. Import from url, xml, rss straight into GSA would be great. If this is already featured can you point me to where I can see how to set it up?

Thanks

I've seen that before Ozz and I cannot insert a macro into the url field in GSA. It seems the people at Rankwyz didn't test their own instructions before putting them up. There is no way to insert a macro into the url field in GSA unless I'm missing something. GSA throws an error any time I try to insert a macro into the URL field.

whats the error message then or did it just don't work in test mode? that said, i didn't test it so far and i would not call me a "macro expert", but most things are working in "work mode".

just set up a dummy project with some random web20 urls (from tumblr, squidoo, goarticles, etc.) and test it, imo.

The owner of RankWyz fixed the tool and now this works in GSA with his tool:

%spinfile-D:\rankwyz\urls.txt%

When I have multiple spinfile macros (%spinfile-D:\rankwyz\urls.txt%) in the URL selection I get the error "Not a valid url." It does work for me when I have only 1... I was wondering if this could be fixed sven or am I doing something wrong?

I had the same problem scalleywag. What I did was hit the "test" a few times and then press ok and it took. Make sure the url box isn't highlighted too.
