The instruction below shows how to get the number of clicks for links.

1) Get your 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 short link you want to get detailed statistics.

Copy the link ID.

3) Install prerequisites for requests.

Please, replace DOMAIN_ID and IDS with appropriate values.

import requests
url = "https://api-v2.short.io/statistics/domain/domainID/link_clicks"
querystring = {"ids":"293627801, 292673342"}
headers = {
    'accept': "*/*",
    'authorization': "<<apiKey>>"
    }
response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers, params=querystring)
print(response.text)

const axios = require('axios');
axios.get('https://api-v2.short.io/statistics/domain/domainID/link_clicks', {
    params: {
        ids: '293627801, 292673342'
},
		headers: {
        accept:'*/*',
        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-v2.short.io/statistics/domain/domainID/link_clicks?ids=293627801%2C%20292673342")
http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url)
request["accept"] = '*/*'
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.

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