Short URL Details

Short URLs turn long destination URLs into clean branded links that are easier to share and measure. They are useful for social posts, ads, email campaigns, SMS, partner campaigns, and QR destinations.

Main fields

  • Name: internal label for reporting and team organization.
  • Destination URL: final URL visitors reach.
  • Alias: optional custom code for a memorable branded link.
  • Password: optional access protection where supported.
  • Brand domain: default app domain or verified custom domain.
  • UTM preset: saved attribution values applied consistently.
  • Tracking pixels: external pixels attached to supported click flows.
  • Status: active, paused, archived, or another supported state.

Related tools

  • Bulk Import: create many short links from CSV rows with shared settings.
  • API keys: let trusted integrations create or read short links.
  • Webhooks: notify external systems when short-link events happen.
  • Analytics: review clicks, referrers, devices, locations, domains, UTM presets, and campaign performance.

Launch checklist

  1. Verify the custom domain if a branded domain will be used.
  2. Choose a short, readable alias for public campaigns.
  3. Apply UTM presets before sharing the URL.
  4. Attach only the required tracking pixels.
  5. Click-test the public Short URL in a private browser session.
  6. Review analytics after the campaign receives traffic.

Feature Purpose

Detailed short-link fields, brand settings, bulk import, API, webhooks, and analytics. This feature is part of the LinkQR workflow and should be documented as an operational tool, not just a menu item.

Main Capabilities

  • CSV-style creation for multiple QR campaigns or short links at once.
  • Validates campaign name, destination URL, alias, password, and related import fields where supported.
  • Respects plan limits for maximum QR codes, short links, and maximum bulk rows.
  • Best for agencies, events, franchise locations, product catalogs, and multi-location campaigns.

Typical Workflow

  1. Open the Short URL Details page from the sidebar.
  2. Review the existing records, settings, or campaign state.
  3. Create or update the required item.
  4. Validate important fields before saving.
  5. Preview or test the public/user-facing result when applicable.
  6. Use analytics, logs, or reports to confirm the feature is working as expected.

Admin Configuration Notes

  • Confirm the feature is enabled in the correct plan.
  • Check workspace ownership when users work inside a team.
  • Review related limits such as credits, storage, QR count, scan count, or team members.

Customer-Facing Benefits

  • Reduces manual work and makes campaign setup faster.
  • Keeps campaign assets organized and easier to maintain.
  • Improves reliability by keeping important setup steps inside one workflow.

Troubleshooting Checklist

  • If the feature is not visible, check plan permission and user role first.
  • If saved data does not appear publicly, verify publish/status settings.

  • If team workspaces are involved, confirm the item belongs to the correct owner workspace.
  • If tracking or analytics is involved, confirm the visitor action uses the tracked dynamic URL.
