Links
A link is a short URL (a domain plus a short path) and the rules for where it sends people. The Links page lists every link you can see, and each link has its own dashboard with analytics and settings.
The Links page
A workspace opens here. Analytics in the sidebar shows every link together, over 24h, 7d, 30d or 90d, as far as your plan keeps history: Visits, Peak hour, Top source and Top device, with charts for traffic sources, devices and tags.
Each link shows its short URL, destination and total clicks. Copy is always there. ⋯ or right-click opens Link dashboard, Edit, Open public link, QR code, Duplicate, Move to folder, Archive and Delete. Edit opens a side panel for quick changes, so you keep your place in the list.
- Search matches the short path and notes. Press
/to jump to it. - Filter narrows by domain, folder, type, status, tag or creator. Filters show as chips you can remove, and they stay in the page address, so you can share a filtered view.
- Sort shows Newest, Oldest, Most clicks or Last clicked first.
- Display switches between Cards and Rows, and chooses which details show. Your browser remembers this.
- Paste a URL anywhere on the page, outside a field, to start a new link.
Select several links
Hover a link's icon to reveal its checkbox, and hold Shift to select a range. The bar at the bottom can Move, Tag, Enable, Disable, Archive or Delete up to 200 links at once.
Archive
Archive tidies a link out of the list, and Undo brings it back right away. An archived link keeps redirecting. Find it with Filter › Status › Archived, then choose Restore. To stop a link working, disable it instead.
Keyboard shortcuts
Press ? for the list. Letters act on the selected links, or else the one under your pointer, and do nothing while you're typing.

FAQ
Can I pause a link instead of deleting it?
Yes. Turn the link off in Settings › Short link. A paused link answers Link not found or not published until you turn it back on, and keeps its analytics.
Who can create and delete links?
Members with Create links and Delete links permissions. Owners and admins have both; members can create and edit; viewers can only look. See .
