Add a page to the outreach list Like "Add a page" on the Outreach screen (source manual). A few minutes later MonoRanks measures it like a link gap target (reason.pageKind, reason.domainRank, reason.ourRank, reason.spamScore, inside the spending limits; reason.measureData says why some are missing; reason.measuredAt says when), then checks the page; measured again weekly. Answers 201 when added, 200 when the page was already listed: that target is returned with the given status, note and tags (tags replace its tags). Recorded in Activity as the key owner.

Notes
GET /sites/{siteId}/outreach lists pages and sites worth asking for a link or a mention, ranked: open targets first by score (0 to 100), then contacted, added and declined. Targets their source no longer finds (gone) come last. MonoRanks does not send email and does not look up contact details: it lists the targets, you do the outreach and record what happened.
What
Details
source
ai_source (AI answers to your tracked questions quote the page but do not name you), best_list (a “best X” list that names your competitors but not you), link_gap (a site that links to two or more of your competitors, not to you), lost_link (a strong site that stopped linking to you, where asking them to update the link is the fix) or manual (added by hand).
reason
says why, with the fields its source knows: for example questions, models and timesCited; keyword and position; competitors, domainRank, spamScore and outOf; or lostAt.
status
to_contact, contacted, added or declined. Filter with status and source. counts has the totals per status and source.
Spam
Targets with a spam score above 60 are left out unless you pass spam=1; counts.spamHidden says how many.
Writing
POST /sites/{siteId}/outreach/{targetId} takes status and/or note (at most 2,000 characters; an empty note clears it). The change is recorded in the website’s Activity as the key owner. Status and note stay when the source refreshes the target.
Added on its own
Once a week MonoRanks reads each open target page again, for free. When the page now links to the website or names it, the target turns added and statusAuto is true.
