Everything you need to make links work harder

01

Straightforward JSON

Send a destination and receive the resulting short URL in a familiar JSON response.

02

Scoped credentials

Create and revoke API keys from your dashboard instead of using your account password.

03

Automation ready

Call the endpoint from n8n, scheduled jobs, forms, content systems, or your own application.

Where are the API examples?

The LinkzLOL documentation includes request and response examples for the shortening endpoint.

Can I revoke a key?

Yes. Remove a key from the API dashboard when it should no longer have access.

Should I expose the key in browser code?

No. Keep API keys in server-side code or a protected automation credential store.
