📘
Information below might be outdated - please visit our recently updated API Reference

The instruction below shows how to get a list of short links.

BODY PARAMS

Parameter name	Type	Constraints	Description
domain_id	string	required	your registered domain id
limit	float	optional	Link limit (up to 150)
before	string	optional	Returns links, older than provided link id. Used for pagination. Example: "before":"lnk_49n_UcaN4"

1) Get your secret API key here: https://app.short.io/settings/integrations/api-key

Click "Create API key".
Add a Secret key.

2) Copy an ID of a domain.

Open Domain settings.
Copy domain ID.

3) Install prerequisites for requests.

pip install requests

npm install --save axios

Now everything is ready to run the following snippet. It will return a list of links.

4) Create a file: filename.py/ .js/ .rb. Use the code snippet below.

📘
Please, replace domainID and limit with appropriate values.

❗️
Link limit (up to 150 links)

import requests
url = "https://api.short.io/api/links"
querystring = {"domain_id":"domainID","limit":"150","offset":"0"}
headers = {
    'accept': "application/json",
    'authorization': "<<apiKey>>"
    }
response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers, params=querystring)
print(response.text)

const axios = require('axios')
axios.get('https://api.short.io/api/links', {
    params: {
        domain_id: 'domainID', 
        limit: '150', 
        offset: '0'
    },
    headers: {
        accept: 'application/json',                                     authorization: '<<apiKey>>'
    }
  })
.then(function (response) {
  console.log(response.data);
})
.catch(function (response) {
  console.log(response);
});

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
require 'openssl'
url = URI("https://api.short.io/domains/delete/domainID")
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
request["authorization"] = '<<apiKey>>'
response = http.request(request)
puts response.read_body

5) Launch the file.

python filename.py

node filename.js

ruby filename.rb

6) JSON Response (a list of links).

Once you run the code, you will see the response.
