Adjust Error Correction Level</h2>Error correction determines how much of the QR code can be obscured while remaining scannable.Linkkit supports multiple error correction levels:<ul><li>Low – smallest code, minimal error tolerance</li><li>Medium – balanced size and reliability (default)</li><li>High – most resilient, ideal for printed surfaces that may get damaged</li></ul>Higher error correction levels slightly increase the visual complexity of the QR code, but improve scan reliability in challenging environments.<h2>4. Change Shape &amp; Style (If Available)</h2>Depending on your plan, Linkkit may offer additional visual styles like:<ul><li>Rounded dots instead of square pixels</li><li>Unique corner designs</li><li>Pattern variations</li></ul>These stylistic elements help your code feel less generic and more integrated with your brand identity.<h2>5. Custom Frame &amp; Call-to-Action (Optional)</h2>Add a frame or text around your QR code:<ul><li>“Scan to View Menu”</li><li>“Scan for Discount”</li><li>“Scan to Buy Now”</li></ul>A clear call-to-action increases scan rates and helps users know what to expect. <h2>Tips for Effective QR Code Design</h2>To maximise scan engagement:<h3>Maintain High Contrast</h3>Ensure clear readability by using distinct colors for foreground and background.<h3>Keep It Simple</h3>Avoid overloading with too many design elements.<h3>Include a Clear CTA</h3>Tell users what they will get when they scan: “Get 10% Off”, “Watch the Video”, etc.<h3>Use Appropriate Sizes</h3><ul><li>Small (Business cards &amp; labels)</li><li>Medium (Flyers &amp; brochures)</li><li>Large (Posters &amp; banners)</li></ul>

Creating and Customizing Links

<h2>Branded Short Links</h2>Branded short links let you replace generic short URLs with your own custom domain. Instead of sharing something like <code>short.ly/abc123</code>, you can use <code>yourbrand.com/offer</code>. This strengthens your brand identity, increases trust, and gives you full control over how your links appear across campaigns. If you’re using Linkkit to manage and track links, branded domains are one of the most powerful features available on Pro and Business plans.<h3>Why Use Branded Links?</h3><h3>1. Stronger Brand Presence</h3>Every time someone sees or shares your link, your brand name is visible. This reinforces brand recall and builds familiarity over time.<h3>2. Higher Trust &amp; Better Click Rates</h3>People are more likely to click links that look safe and recognisable. A branded domain feels more secure than a generic shortener.<h3>3. Professional Appearance</h3>Custom links look polished in:<ul><li>Email campaigns</li><li>Social media posts</li><li>Paid ads</li><li>SMS marketing</li><li>Offline materials (flyers, banners, QR codes)</li></ul><h3>4. Full Ownership &amp; Control</h3>You’re not relying on a third-party short domain. If a generic shortener shuts down or changes policies, your branded domain remains yours.<h3>5. Consistent Marketing Experience</h3>Using one recognizable domain across all channels ensures uniform branding and easier campaign management.<h2>How to Set Up a Branded Domain in Linkkit</h2>To use branded links, you’ll need:<ul><li>A custom domain (e.g., <code>go.yourbrand.com</code>)</li><li>Access to your domain DNS settings</li><li>A Linkkit Pro or Business plan</li></ul><h3>Step-by-Step Setup</h3><ol><li>Go to your Linkkit Dashboard</li><li>Navigate to Domains</li><li>Click Add Domain</li><li>Enter your custom domain or subdomain</li><li>Follow the provided DNS configuration instructions</li><li>Verify the domain inside Linkkit</li></ol>Once verification is complete, you can start creating short links using your branded domain immediately. If you’re unsure about DNS setup, your hosting provider can assist with adding the required records.<h2>Using Multiple Domains (Business Plan)</h2>If you manage multiple brands or campaigns, Linkkit allows you to connect more than one domain to the same workspace (Business plan only).<h3>Benefits of Multiple Domains</h3><ul><li>Separate domains for different brands</li><li>Dedicated domains for specific campaigns</li><li>Regional domains for different markets</li><li>Testing different branding approaches</li></ul>You can:<ul><li>Set a default domain for all new links</li><li>Select a specific domain manually while creating a link</li></ul>This flexibility helps keep your campaigns organised and strategically branded.<h2>Best Practices for Branded Links</h2><h3>Choose a Short &amp; Memorable Domain</h3>Many businesses:<ul><li>Use a shortened version of their brand name</li><li>Create a dedicated subdomain like <code>go.brand.com</code></li><li>Purchase a short secondary domain for link sharing</li></ul><h3>Keep Slugs Clear &amp; Concise</h3>Instead of:<pre><code>yourbrand.com/x7h2k9</code></pre>Use:<pre><code>yourbrand.com/summer-sale</code></pre>Clear slugs improve readability and make links easier to remember.<h3>Maintain Naming Consistency</h3>Use structured naming across campaigns:<ul><li><code>brand.com/webinar-jan</code></li><li><code>brand.com/black-friday</code></li><li><code>brand.com/product-launch</code></li></ul>Consistency improves internal tracking and reporting.<h3>Review Analytics Regularly</h3>Once your branded links are active, monitor performance inside Linkkit:<ul><li>Click-through rates</li><li>Geographic data</li><li>Device breakdown</li><li>Campaign performance</li></ul>This ensures you’re not just branding better — you’re optimising smarter.

Create short links with your own custom domain

Using Branded Links

Segments in Linkkit give you a powerful yet simple way to organize, categorize, and quickly find your links using a flexible grouping system. Unlike traditional folders that restrict a link to a single location, Segments allow you to group links dynamically. This means you can structure and filter your links intelligently — without clutter or rigid hierarchies. Segments help you manage dozens — or even hundreds — of links with clarity and control.<h2>What Are Segments?</h2>Segments are customizable labels that help you group related links based on purpose, campaign, channel, time period, or internal structure. For example, you might create segments for:<ul><li>A specific marketing campaign</li><li>A marketing channel (Email, Social, PPC, etc.)</li><li>A time period (Q1 2026, Festive Sale, Launch Week)</li><li>A product category</li><li>A client project or content type</li></ul>This structured grouping system keeps your dashboard clean and makes link management more efficient. Instead of scrolling through long lists, you can filter by segments and instantly see only the links you need.<h2>Why Use Segments?</h2>Segments help you:<ul><li>Stay organized as your link volume grows</li><li>Improve productivity with faster filtering</li><li>Track performance by campaign or category</li><li>Simplify collaboration across teams</li><li>Maintain a scalable workflow</li></ul>Whether you're a marketer, agency, content creator, or growing business, Segments in Linkkit help you stay structured and efficient.<h2>How Segments Work — Simple Overview</h2>Using Segments is straightforward:<ol><li>Create or select a link in Linkkit.</li><li>Assign the link to a Segment that describes its purpose.</li><li>Use filters to view only links within a specific Segment.</li><li>Manage your links without clutter — even at scale.</li></ol>Think of Segments as smart organizational buckets that keep your links structured and easy to locate.<h2>Step-by-Step Instructions</h2><h3>Open Your Link Dashboard</h3><ul><li>Log in to your Linkkit dashboard.</li><li>Go to the Links section.</li></ul>This is your central hub for viewing, filtering, and managing all links.<h3>Assign Links to Segments</h3><h3>When Creating a New Link</h3><ul><li>While creating a new short link, locate the Segment field.</li><li>Select an existing Segment or create a new one.</li><li>Save the link.</li></ul>💡 Tip: Use clear, meaningful Segment names so they’re easy to recognize later.<h3>Adding or Editing Segments on Existing Links</h3><ul><li>Find the link in your dashboard.</li><li>Open the edit or details panel.</li><li>Locate the Segment option.</li><li>Assign or change the Segment.</li><li>Save your changes.</li></ul><h3>View and Filter by Segments</h3>Once links are assigned to Segments:<ul><li>Use the Filter option in your Links dashboard.</li><li>Select a Segment to display only links within that group.</li><li>Quickly narrow down results to find what you need.</li></ul>This makes it easy to view:<ul><li>All links related to a specific campaign</li><li>Links used in social media promotions</li><li>Newsletter links</li><li>Internal or priority links</li></ul><h3>Remove or Change a Segment (Optional)</h3><ul><li>Open the link details.</li><li>Modify or remove the assigned Segment.</li><li>Save your changes.</li></ul>Removing a Segment does not delete the link — it simply changes how it is organized.<h2>Practical Use Cases for Segments</h2><table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Use Case</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">How Segments Help</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Campaign Management</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Group all links under a campaign name like SummerSale or ProductLaunch</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Channel Organization</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Separate Email, Instagram, or Paid Ads links</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Team Collaboration</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Clearly define project-based link grouping</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Performance Analysis</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Compare results across campaigns or channels</td></tr></tbody></table><h2>Best Practices for Using Segments Effectively</h2>To keep your system organized and scalable:Keep Naming Consistent : Choose a naming format and stick to it. Example: Use either <code>SummerSale_2026</code> or <code>Summer-Sale-2026</code> — Avoid mixing formats.Keep Segment Names Clear and Concise: Short, meaningful names work best.Avoid Duplicate Variations: Don’t create multiple versions of the same segment name.Define a Team Strategy: If working with a team:<ul><li>Agree on naming conventions</li><li>Standardize capitalization</li><li>Define campaign labelling rules</li></ul>Review Segments Regularly: Clean up unused segments and merge similar ones to prevent clutter.<h2>Summary</h2>The Organizing with Segments feature in Linkkit transforms your dashboard into a structured, searchable system.With consistent naming and thoughtful grouping, you can:<ul><li>Quickly locate important links</li><li>Track campaigns more effectively</li><li>Manage large volumes of URLs</li><li>Maintain a scalable workflow</li></ul>Segments are simple to use — but when applied strategically, they become one of the most powerful tools for managing links efficiently in Linkkit.

Use segments to categorize and filter your links

Organizing with Segments 

The Organizing with Lists feature in Linkkit helps you group and manage links using a structured, folder-style system.Unlike segments (which allow flexible, multi-category labeling), lists provide clear, hierarchical organization. Each link belongs to one list at a time, making lists ideal for keeping campaigns, projects, or clients neatly separated.Lists are perfect when you want:<ul><li>Clean separation between campaigns</li><li>Dedicated folders for clients</li><li>Organized project-based link management</li><li>A structured dashboard layout</li></ul>If segments are flexible labels, lists are your structured folders.<h2>How It Works</h2>Lists act like containers that hold related links together.Here’s how it works:<ol><li>You create a list (for a campaign, client, or project).</li><li>You assign links to that list.</li><li>You view and manage links inside the list.</li><li>You move links between lists when needed.</li></ol>Each link belongs to one list, which keeps your structure clean and organized.This system makes it easier to manage links when working on multiple campaigns or with multiple clients.<h3> Step-by-Step Instructions</h3><h3>Step 1: Create a New List</h3><ol><li>Log into your Linkkit dashboard.</li><li>Navigate to the Lists section.</li><li>Click Create List.</li><li>Enter a clear and descriptive list name.</li><li>Save your list.</li></ol>Your new list is now ready to organize links.<h3>Step 2: Add Links to a List</h3>You can assign links to a list in two ways.<h3>Option A: While Creating a Link</h3><ol><li>Create a new short link.</li><li>Locate the List selection option.</li><li>Choose the appropriate list.</li><li>Save your link.</li></ol>The link will now appear inside that list.<h3>Option B: Move an Existing Link to a List</h3><ol><li>Open your Links dashboard.</li><li>Select the link you want to organize.</li><li>Edit the link.</li><li>Choose a list from the dropdown menu.</li><li>Save changes.</li></ol>The link is now assigned to the selected list.<h3>Step 3: View Links Inside a List</h3><ol><li>Go to the Lists page.</li><li>Click on a specific list.</li><li>View all links assigned to that list.</li></ol>You can:<ul><li>Sort links by date or performance</li><li>Edit links directly</li><li>Track analytics within that list</li></ul>This makes campaign tracking and reporting more focused and efficient.<h2>Managing Your Lists</h2>The Lists section gives you control over your structure.You can:<ul><li>Rename a List: Update the list name if your campaign or project changes.</li><li>Move Links Between Lists: Reassign links if they belong in a different campaign or client folder.</li><li>Delete a List: If a campaign is complete, you can delete the list.</li></ul><h3> Note: Links inside the list are not deleted — they simply become unassigned or can be moved elsewhere. This flexibility ensures your structure can evolve as your business grows.</h3>

The Link Expiration feature in Linkkit allows you to automatically deactivate a short link based on rules you define — such as a specific date, time, or usage limit.Instead of manually checking whether a promotion has ended or worrying about outdated links still being shared, you can set clear expiration conditions in advance. Once those conditions are met, the link automatically stops redirecting to its original destination.This ensures your links always reflect the current status of your campaigns — without requiring constant monitoring.<h2>Why Link Expiration Matters</h2>In digital marketing, timing is critical.If a link continues working after:<ul><li>A sale has ended</li><li>Registration has closed</li><li>A discount code has expired</li><li>A limited-access offer has reached capacity</li></ul>It can create confusion, frustration, and even damage trust.Link Expiration prevents this by giving you automated control over how long a link remains active.Instead of reacting to problems, you proactively manage them.<h2>What You Can Control</h2>With Link Expiration, you can define:<h3>1. Date-Based Expiration</h3>Set an exact date and time when the link should stop working.Example:<ul><li>A flash sale ending at midnight</li><li>Webinar registration closing one hour before the event</li><li>A holiday campaign ending on a specific day</li></ul>Once that moment arrives, the link automatically expires.<h3>2. Usage-Based Expiration (Click Limits)</h3>Set a maximum number of allowed clicks.Example:<ul><li>Only the first 100 users can access an exclusive offer</li><li>Limited early-bird registrations</li><li>VIP access capped at a specific number</li></ul>When the click limit is reached, the link automatically becomes inactive.<h3>3. Post-Expiration Behavior</h3>Control what users see after the link expires.Instead of sending visitors to a broken page, you can:<ul><li>Redirect them to a general landing page</li><li>Show a “Campaign Ended” message</li><li>Send them to a waitlist form</li><li>Offer an alternative promotion</li></ul>This ensures users are guided — not confused.<h2>When to Use Link Expiration</h2>Link Expiration is especially valuable for:<ul><li>Limited-Time Promotions: Ensure discounts and offers stop working exactly when intended.</li><li>Event Registrations: Automatically close sign-ups when registration ends.</li><li>Flash Sales: Control short-term campaigns without manual updates.</li><li>Early-Bird Offers: Limit special pricing to a defined timeframe or user count.</li><li>Private or Exclusive Content: Provide temporary access to gated material.</li><li>Seasonal Campaigns: End holiday or seasonal promotions automatically.</li></ul>Without expiration rules, old links can continue circulating on social media, emails, or shared messages — long after a campaign ends.That can lead to:<ul><li>Customer complaints</li><li>Missed expectations</li><li>Support tickets</li><li>Brand credibility issues</li></ul>Link Expiration eliminates these risks by ensuring your links stay aligned with your campaign timeline.You decide when access starts. You decide when access ends. Linkkit enforces it automatically.<h2>How It Works</h2>Link expiration allows you to define when a link should stop working.You can set:<ul><li>A specific expiration date and time</li><li>A maximum number of clicks (if supported)</li><li>Custom behavior after expiration</li></ul>Once the expiration condition is met:<ul><li>The link automatically becomes inactive</li><li>Visitors will no longer reach the original destination</li><li>You can redirect them to an alternative page if configured</li></ul>This automation protects your campaigns and prevents outdated content from being accessed.<h2>Step-by-Step Guide</h2><h3>Step 1: Create or Open a Link</h3>You can apply expiration settings to:<ul><li>A newly created link</li><li>An existing link</li></ul>To begin:<ol><li>Log into your Linkkit dashboard.</li><li>Go to the Links section.</li><li>Either create a new link or select an existing one to edit.</li></ol><h3>Step 2: Locate the Expiration Settings</h3>Inside the link settings panel:<ol><li>Scroll to the Expiration section.</li><li>Enable the Link Expiration option.</li></ol>Once enabled, additional configuration options will appear.<h3>Step 3: Choose the Expiration Type</h3>You may see one or more of the following options:<h3>Option A: Expire on a Specific Date &amp; Time</h3><ol><li>Select Set Expiration Date.</li><li>Choose the desired date.</li><li>Set the exact time (including time zone if applicable).</li></ol>This is ideal for:<ul><li>Flash sales ending at midnight</li><li>Webinar registrations closing before start time</li><li>Holiday campaigns</li></ul>Once the selected date and time are reached, the link automatically expires.<h3>Option B: Expire After a Certain Number of Clicks (If Available)</h3><ol><li>Enable Click Limit Expiration.</li><li>Enter the maximum number of allowed clicks.</li></ol>Example: If you set a limit of 100 clicks, the link will expire once it reaches 100 visits.This works well for:<ul><li>Limited-access offers</li><li>VIP-only promotions</li><li>Controlled distribution campaigns</li></ul><h3>Step 4: Set Expiration Behavior</h3>After a link expires, you can define what happens next.Common options include:<h3>Redirect to Another URL</h3>Send users to:<ul><li>A general landing page</li><li>A “Campaign Ended” page</li><li>A waitlist or alternative offer</li></ul>This ensures visitors are guided instead of facing a broken link.<h3>Display a Custom Expired Message</h3>Inform visitors that:<ul><li>The promotion has ended</li><li>The event registration is closed</li><li>The link is no longer active</li></ul>Providing clarity improves user experience.<h2>Step 5: Save Your Settings</h2>After configuring expiration:<ol><li>Review all settings carefully.</li><li>Click Save or Update Link.</li><li>Confirm changes.</li></ol>Your link will now follow the defined expiration rules automatically. <h1>Managing Expired Links</h1>You maintain full control even after expiration.You can:<ul><li>Extend the expiration date</li><li>Remove expiration entirely</li><li>Reactivate the link</li><li>Change the destination</li></ul>Expired links remain visible in your dashboard with their analytics intact.No data is lost.

Analytics Overview

Click tracking is at the heart of Linkkit’s analytics — it measures how people interact with your links and QR codes. When someone clicks a tracked link or scans a QR code, Linkkit records the interaction and turns it into actionable data you can analyze in your dashboard. This article explains what click tracking is, how it works, and how to use your Linkkit click data to improve your marketing performance.<h2>What Is Click Tracking?</h2>Click tracking is the process of recording and analyzing every click on a tracked link or QR scan.Whenever a Linkkit-generated short link is clicked — or a QR code associated with a Linkkit link is scanned — Linkkit:<ul><li>Captures the click</li><li>Logs key details about the interaction</li><li>Adds it to your analytics dashboard</li></ul><img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772516254777-a9zw6r24kde.png">Click tracking gives you visibility into how users engage with your links across campaigns, platforms, and channels.<h2>What Data Is Tracked With Clicks</h2>When Linkkit records a click, it captures multiple data points so you can understand user behavior:Total Click Count: The total number of clicks a specific link has received. Unique Visitors: Counts only the first click per user to show how many individual users engaged. Unique Visitors vs. Total Clicks:<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 75px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Metric</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Total Clicks</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Unique Visitors</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">What It Measures</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Every single click on a link</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Distinct individuals who clicked the link</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Repeat Visits Counted?</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Yes — every repeat click is counted</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">No — repeat clicks from the same user are grouped as one</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">How It’s Calculated</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Simple count of all clicks recorded</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Estimated using IP address, user agent, device data, and cookies</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Example</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">1 person clicks 5 times = 5 total clicks</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">1 person clicks 5 times = 1 unique visitor</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Best Used For</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Measuring overall engagement volume</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Measuring audience reach</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">What It Tells You</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">How often your link is accessed</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">How many different people likely interacted</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Campaign Insight</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Shows interest intensity</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Shows audience expansion</td></tr></tbody></table> Click Timestamp: Exact date and time when each click happened — useful for trend analysis. Referring Source: Shows where the click came from, such as: Social Platforms, Email apps, Messaging apps, Websites, QR scans. Device &amp; Platform: Identifies whether clicks came from: Mobile phones, Tablets, or Desktop computers. These insights help tailor your content and landing pages for the most common devices. Geographic Location: Click tracking also includes location data, so you can see which regions or countries are engaging most with your links.<h2>How Click Tracking Works</h2>Linkkit automatically tracks every click for you — no extra setup required.Here’s what happens:<ol><li>You create a Linkkit short link or QR code.</li><li>Someone clicks the link or scans the QR code.</li><li>Linkkit captures the event and logs it in analytics.</li><li>You see the data in your dashboard under Analytics → Click Tracking.</li></ol>Every click is counted in near real time, so you can monitor engagement as it happens. Every click is counted in near real time, so you can monitor engagement as it happens.<h2>Viewing Click Tracking Data</h2>To access click tracking reports:<ol><li>Log in to your Linkkit dashboard</li><li>Go to Analytics</li><li>Select the link, campaign, or QR code you want to track</li><li>Open the Click Tracking tab</li></ol>You’ll see:<ul><li>Total clicks and trends over time</li><li>Unique vs total click counts</li><li>Referrer breakdown</li><li>Device &amp; location reports</li><li>Time-of-day activity charts</li></ul>These visuals make it easy to understand patterns and campaign performance.<h2>Why Click Tracking Matters</h2>Click tracking is essential for:<h3>Measuring Engagement</h3>See exactly how many times users interact with your links.<h3>Optimizing Campaigns</h3>Understand which channels and platforms drive the most traffic.<h3>Improving Strategies</h3>Identify the best times and places to share links for maximum impact.<h3>Tracking ROI</h3>Compare click performance with conversions and revenue to measure success.<h2>Advanced Click Tracking Features</h2>Linkkit’s advanced click tracking tools go beyond basic click counts. They help you organize data, monitor performance in real time, and generate professional reports for deeper insights.<h3>Campaign &amp; Tag Analytics</h3>Campaign and tag analytics allow you to group multiple links under a single label so you can measure their combined performance.Instead of analyzing links one by one, you can:<ul><li>Track the total clicks generated by an entire marketing campaign</li><li>Compare performance across different campaigns (e.g., Email vs Social vs Paid Ads)</li><li>Organize links by product launch, event, client, or promotion</li><li>Measure overall ROI for a grouped strategy</li></ul>For example, if you create five different links for a product launch across Instagram, email, and WhatsApp, you can assign them all to one campaign and view total performance in one place.This makes reporting cleaner and strategy evaluation much easier.<h3>Trend Graphs</h3>Trend graphs visually display how clicks change over time.You can analyze performance by:<ul><li>Last 24 hours</li><li>Last 7 days</li><li>Last 30 days</li><li>Custom date ranges</li></ul>Trend data helps you:<ul><li>Identify peak engagement days and times</li><li>Detect sudden traffic spikes from promotions</li><li>Compare performance before and after a campaign launch</li><li>Measure consistency or seasonal patterns</li></ul>Instead of just seeing numbers, you see patterns — which makes it easier to make data-driven decisions.<h3>Real-Time Monitoring</h3>Linkkit updates click data in near real time, allowing you to monitor live campaigns as they happen.This is especially useful for:<ul><li>Product launches</li><li>Flash sales</li><li>Live webinars or events</li><li>Influencer collaborations</li><li>Limited-time offers</li></ul>If you share a link and immediately see clicks increasing, you can confirm the campaign is working. If engagement is low, you can adjust messaging or distribution quickly.Real-time monitoring reduces guesswork and allows for fast optimization.

Click Tracking

Linkkit provides powerful geographic analytics that show where your clicks and QR scans are coming from. By understanding location data, you can tailor your marketing strategy, optimize targeting, and improve engagement in specific regions.This guide explains how Linkkit tracks geographic data, how to view it, and how to use it to make smarter campaign decisions.<h2>What Is Geographic Data?</h2>Geographic data shows which countries, regions, and cities generate the most activity for your links or QR codes.Instead of just knowing how many times a link was clicked, geographic analytics tells you where your audience is located — helping you understand engagement by location. This data gives you visibility into your audience’s global distribution.<h2>How Linkkit Determines Location</h2>Linkkit uses IP geolocation databases to estimate the location of each visitor based on their IP address.When someone clicks your link:<ol><li>Their IP address is recorded.</li><li>The IP is matched to a geographic database.</li><li>The system identifies the likely country, region, and city.</li></ol><h3>Accuracy &amp; Limitations</h3><ul><li>Country-level accuracy is generally very reliable.</li><li>City-level data is usually accurate but may sometimes be approximate.</li><li>VPN users appear in their VPN server’s location.</li><li>Mobile users may show approximate carrier-based locations.</li><li>Corporate networks may show headquarters locations instead of the user's physical location.</li></ul>Location tracking respects privacy and does not collect personal identity data.<h2>Where to View Geographic Data</h2>To access geographic analytics:<ol><li>Log in to your Linkkit dashboard.</li><li>Navigate to Analytics.</li><li>Select a specific link or view overall analytics.</li><li>Open the Geographic Data section.</li></ol>You’ll see visual breakdowns such as

Using a custom domain for your Linkkit short links makes your branding more professional and memorable. This guide walks you through every step — from DNS setup to verification — with clear visuals, examples, and best practices so you can launch faster with confidence.<h2>📌 What Is a Custom Domain?</h2>A custom domain allows you to use your own branded URL (for example, <code>go.yourbrand.com</code>) instead of the default Linkkit domain. This helps reinforce your brand identity and builds trust with your audience every time you share a link.<h2>🛠️ Requirements Before You Start</h2>Before adding your custom domain in Linkkit:<ul><li>You must own and control a domain (registered with any provider like Namecheap, GoDaddy, Cloudflare, etc.)</li><li>You must be able to access DNS settings for that domain</li><li>You should be prepared to add TXT and CNAME records (explained below)</li></ul><h2>Step-by-Step: How to Add Your Custom Domain</h2><h3>1. Log in to Your Domain Registrar</h3>Go to the company where you purchased your domain (e.g., Namecheap, GoDaddy).<h3>2. Open DNS Management</h3>In your domain dashboard, locate:<ul><li>DNS Settings</li><li>DNS Management</li><li>Zone Editor</li><li>DNS Records</li></ul>This is where you'll add two records Linkkit needs for verification and connection.<h3>✉️ 3. Add the Domain Verification TXT Record</h3>This step tells Linkkit you own the domain.<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Field</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Type</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">TXT</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Name / Host</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">(provided by Linkkit)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">(verification value provided by Linkkit)</td></tr></tbody></table>➡️ You will see the exact values in your Linkkit Dashboard once you start adding the domain.<h3>🔁 4. Add the CNAME Record</h3>This step connects your domain so Linkkit can serve short links on it.<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Field</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Type</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">CNAME</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Name / Host</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">(unique value from Linkkit)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value / Target</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>custom.linkkit.co</code></td></tr></tbody></table><blockquote>The CNAME value must be exactly <code>custom.linkkit.co</code> — do not change it.</blockquote><h3>💾 5. Save &amp; Wait for DNS Propagation</h3>After you add both records:✔ Save the changes ✔ Wait up to 24–48 hours for DNS propagationDNS updates may show immediately or take a few hours depending on your provider.<h2>Verifying Your Domain in Linkkit</h2>Once DNS records are live:<ol><li>Go back to Linkkit Dashboard → Domains</li><li>Click Verify</li><li>Linkkit will check your DNS records and confirm ownership</li></ol>If verification fails, double-check:✔ The TXT record was added correctly ✔ The CNAME points to <code>custom.linkkit.co</code> ✔ No extra characters (quotes, spaces, symbols)<h2>Setting Your Default Domain</h2>After verification:<ol><li>Go to Default Domain section in Linkkit</li><li>Choose your newly added custom domain</li><li>Click Set as Default</li></ol>This ensures all new short links automatically use your branded URL.

Adding a Custom Domain

Using a custom domain with Linkkit allows you to create branded short links that look professional, trustworthy, and memorable. Instead of sharing generic URLs, you can use your own branded domain (like <code>go.yourbrand.com</code>) to strengthen brand recognition and improve click confidence. This guide walks you through the complete setup process — from DNS configuration to domain verification.<h2>What Is a Custom Domain?</h2>A custom domain lets you replace the default Linkkit domain with your own branded URL.For example:Instead of:<pre><code>linkkit.cc/abc123</code></pre>You can share:<pre><code>go.yourbrand.com/offer</code></pre>Benefits of using a custom domain:<ul><li>Reinforces brand identity</li><li>Increases link trust</li><li>Improves click-through rates</li><li>Creates a consistent marketing experience</li></ul><h3>Requirements Before You Start</h3>Before adding your custom domain to Linkkit, make sure:<ul><li>You own a registered domain (via providers like Namecheap, GoDaddy, Cloudflare, etc.)</li><li>You have access to manage its DNS settings</li><li>You can add DNS records (TXT and CNAME)</li></ul>If you're unfamiliar with DNS, follow the step-by-step instructions below.<h2>Step-by-Step: Add Your Custom Domain</h2><h3>Log in to Your Domain Registrar</h3>Sign in to the platform where your domain is registered (for example, Namecheap or GoDaddy).<h3>Open DNS Management</h3>Navigate to your domain’s DNS settings. This section may be labelled:<ul><li>DNS Management</li><li>DNS Settings</li><li>Zone Editor</li><li>DNS Records</li><li>Advanced DNS</li></ul>This is where you will add the required records.<h3>Add the TXT Record (Domain Verification)</h3>The TXT record verifies that you own the domain.Create a new DNS record with the following details:<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Field</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value (from Linkkit Dashboard)</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Type</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">TXT</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Host / Name</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Provided by Linkkit</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Verification string from Linkkit</td></tr></tbody></table>Important: Copy and paste the values exactly as shown in your Linkkit dashboard to avoid errors.<h3>Add the CNAME Record (Domain Connection)</h3>The CNAME record connects your domain to Linkkit so your short links function properly.Add another DNS record with these details:<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Field</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Value</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Type</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">CNAME</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Host / Name</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Unique value provided by Linkkit</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Target / Value</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">custom.linkkit.co</td></tr></tbody></table>Important: The CNAME target must be exactly:<pre><code>custom.linkkit.co</code></pre>Do not add:<ul><li>http:// or https://</li><li>Your main website URL</li><li>An IP address</li></ul><h3>Save Changes &amp; Wait for DNS Propagation</h3>After adding both records:<ul><li>Save your DNS changes</li><li>Allow time for DNS propagation</li></ul>Propagation typically takes:<ul><li>A few minutes to a few hours</li><li>Up to 24–48 hours in rare cases</li></ul>The exact timing depends on your domain provider.<h2>Verify Your Domain in Linkkit</h2>Once your DNS records are live:<ol><li>Go to your Linkkit Dashboard</li><li>Navigate to Domains</li><li>Click Verify</li></ol>Linkkit will automatically check your TXT and CNAME records.If everything is configured correctly, your domain will be marked as verified.<h2>Set Your Default Domain</h2>After successful verification:<ol><li>Go to the Default Domain section</li><li>Select your newly added custom domain</li><li>Click Set as Default</li></ol>All newly created short links will now use your branded domain automatically.<h2>Quick DNS Records Recap</h2><table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 75px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Step</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">DNS Record</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Purpose</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">1</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">TXT</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Verifies domain ownership</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">2</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">CNAME</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Connects your domain to Linkkit</td></tr></tbody></table>Both records are required for your custom domain to work correctly.<h2>Troubleshooting DNS Configuration Issues</h2>If your custom domain is not verifying, don’t worry — most issues are caused by small DNS mistakes. Review the checklist below to quickly identify and fix the problem.<h3>Incorrect Host or Name Field</h3>The Host / Name value must exactly match what is shown in your Linkkit dashboard.Common mistakes include:<ul><li>Typing errors</li><li>Adding the full domain instead of just the subdomain</li><li>Leaving the field blank when a value is required</li></ul>Double-check the value and copy it directly from Linkkit to avoid formatting errors.<h3>CNAME Not Pointing to the Correct Target</h3>Your CNAME record must point to:<code>custom.linkkit.co</code>Common issues:<ul><li>Pointing the CNAME to your main website</li><li>Using an IP address instead</li><li>Misspelling the target</li><li>Adding “http://” or “https://” (do not include this)</li></ul>The target should be exactly: <code>custom.linkkit.co</code><h3>TXT Record Value Mismatch</h3>The TXT record is used for domain ownership verification. If it doesn’t match exactly, verification will fail.Check for:<ul><li>Missing characters</li><li>Extra spaces at the beginning or end</li><li>Modified verification strings</li></ul>Always copy and paste the TXT value exactly as provided.<h3>DNS Propagation Delay</h3>Even if your records are correct, DNS changes can take time to update globally.<ul><li>Most updates are complete within a few minutes to a few hours</li><li>In rare cases, it can take up to 24–48 hours</li></ul>If you recently added or edited records, wait and try verifying again later.<h3>DNS Provider Formatting Differences</h3>Some DNS providers:<ul><li>Automatically add quotation marks around TXT values</li><li>Automatically append your root domain to the Host field</li></ul>This is normal behavior and usually does not cause issues — just ensure the final record displays correctly in your DNS panel.<h2>Still Not Working?</h2>If you’ve checked all the steps above and your domain is still not verifying:<ul><li>Confirm both TXT and CNAME records are active</li><li>Ensure there are no duplicate or conflicting DNS records</li><li>Contact your domain registrar for DNS assistance</li><li>Reach out to Linkkit Support for further help</li></ul>

DNS Configuration Guide

After adding your custom domain and configuring DNS settings, the final step is verification.Domain verification ensures that:<ul><li>You are the rightful owner of the domain</li><li>DNS records are correctly configured</li><li>Your domain can securely serve branded short links through Linkkit</li></ul>Without verification, your custom domain cannot be activated or used for link generation.This guide explains how verification works, what Linkkit checks in the background, expected timelines, and how to resolve common issues.<h2>How Domain Verification Works</h2>When you click Verify inside Linkkit, the system automatically checks your domain’s DNS configuration.Linkkit looks for two required records:<h3>TXT Record — Ownership Verification</h3>The TXT record confirms that you control the domain. It contains a unique verification string generated specifically for your account.If this record is missing or incorrect, verification will fail.<h3>CNAME Record — Domain Connection</h3>The CNAME record connects your domain to Linkkit’s infrastructure.It must point exactly to:<pre><code>custom.linkkit.co</code></pre>This allows Linkkit to:<ul><li>Route traffic correctly</li><li>Generate branded short links</li><li>Securely serve redirect requests</li></ul>Both records must be publicly accessible for verification to succeed.<h2>Step-by-Step: Verify Your Custom Domain</h2>Follow these steps after completing DNS setup.<h3>Step 1: Log in to Linkkit</h3><ul><li>Access your Linkkit dashboard</li><li>Navigate to the Domains section</li></ul>You will see the domain you previously added.<h3>Step 2: Click “Verify”</h3><ul><li>Click the Verify button next to your custom domain</li><li>Linkkit will begin checking DNS records</li></ul>The system scans for:<ul><li>The required TXT record</li><li>The required CNAME record</li><li>Correct record values</li><li>Proper DNS formatting</li></ul><h3>Step 3: Check Verification Status</h3>After checking, your domain status will show:<ul><li>Verified — Setup complete</li><li>Pending — DNS still propagating</li><li>Failed — Configuration issue detected</li></ul>If verified successfully, your domain is ready to use immediately.<img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772515626440-pdlja1ta4x.png"><h2>How Long Does Verification Take?</h2>Verification time depends on DNS propagation.Typical timelines:<ul><li>Most domains verify within a few minutes</li><li>Some may take 1–4 hours</li><li>Rarely, up to 24–48 hours</li></ul>DNS propagation speed depends on your domain registrar and hosting provider.If verification fails immediately after adding records, wait and retry.<h2>What Happens After Verification?</h2>Once verified:<ul><li>Your custom domain becomes active inside Linkkit</li><li>You can set it as your Default Domain</li><li>All newly created short links will use your branded URL</li><li>Links can be organized using Segments for structured tracking</li><li>Your redirects will function globally</li></ul>Verification activates full domain functionality. Here is a short, minimal troubleshooting section for the Custom Domain Verification page:<h2>Troubleshooting Domain Verification</h2>If your custom domain is not verifying in Linkkit, check the following:1. TXT Record Missing or Incorrect<ul><li>Ensure the TXT record is added.</li><li>Confirm the Host/Name matches exactly.</li><li>Copy the verification value exactly as shown in your dashboard.</li><li>Remove extra spaces or accidental edits.</li></ul>2.

Conflicting DNS Records<ul><li>Remove duplicate CNAME entries.</li><li>Check for conflicting A records.</li><li>Ensure only the required records are active.</li></ul>

Verify domain ownership and troubleshoot issues

Domain Verification

Once you’ve added and verified a custom domain in Linkkit, you can designate it as your default domain. This means all new short links you create will automatically use your branded domain instead of the Linkkit system domain.Setting a default domain makes your links more consistent, professional, and on-brand across campaigns.<h2>What Is a Default Domain?</h2>The default domain is the branded URL that Linkkit uses by default when generating new short links. If you don’t set one, Linkkit will continue using its system domain.Example:<ul><li>System domain: <code>linkkit.cc/abc123</code></li><li>Default custom domain: <code>go.yourbrand.com/offer</code></li></ul>When a custom domain is set as the default, all new links use your branded URL automatically.<h2>How to Set a Default Domain</h2>Follow these steps:<ol><li>Go to Your Linkkit Dashboard Log in to your account.</li><li>Open the Domains Section Navigate to: Settings → Custom Domains or Links → Domains (depending on your layout).</li><li>Locate Your Verified Domain You should see a list of added domains with their status.</li><li>Click “Set as Default”<ul><li>Find the custom domain you want to use</li><li>Click Set as Default</li><li>Linkkit will confirm your selection</li></ul></li></ol>Once set, this domain will be used for all new short links you create moving forward.<h2>Changing Your Default Domain</h2>You can always switch your default domain:<ol><li>Go to the Domains page in your dashboard</li><li>Find a different verified domain</li><li>Click Set as Default next to it</li><li>Linkkit will update your preference</li></ol><img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772518057408-dj15ea18j96.png"> Note: Changing your default domain does not affect previously created links — only new ones.<h2>What Happens After You Set a Default Domain</h2>After setting a custom domain as the default:<ul><li>New links automatically use that branded URL</li><li>You no longer need to select a domain manually each time</li><li>Your links remain consistent across marketing campaigns and content</li></ul>Legacy links created before the change will continue to use the domain they were originally assigned.<h2>Default Domain Requirements</h2>To set a domain as default, it must:Be added to your Linkkit dashboard Have a verified status (DNS records must be live and confirmed)If a domain is not yet verified, you’ll see a message asking you to complete verification first.<h2>Tips for Default Domain Setup</h2><ul><li>Use a domain that matches your brand name</li><li>Use a subdomain (like <code>go.yourbrand.com</code>) for cleaner short links</li><li>Avoid using your main website domain for redirects — this can cause DNS conflicts</li><li>Ensure DNS records (TXT + CNAME) are correctly configured before verifying</li></ul><h2>Default Domain FAQ</h2>Q: Can I have more than one custom domain? Yes — Linkkit lets you add multiple custom domains. But only one can be your default.Q: What if I don’t set a default? Linkkit will continue using its system domain for all short links.Q: Will old links update when I change the default? No, only new links created after the change will use the new default domain.<h2>Summary</h2>Setting a default custom domain:<ul><li>Makes link creation faster</li><li>Ensures consistent branding</li><li>Improves link recognition and engagement</li></ul>Just verify your domain first, then set it as default in Linkkit — and you’re ready to go!

Zapier Integration 

To securely access the Linkkit API, all requests must be authenticated using your unique API key. This ensures that only authorized applications and integrations can interact with your link management data, campaign settings, segments, and analytics. This page explains how authentication works, how to generate and use your API key, and best practices for keeping your integration secure.<h2>What Is API Authentication?</h2>The Linkkit API uses a simple, secure key-based authentication system. Each request you make must include your API key in the request header. This verifies your identity and allows Linkkit to authorize access to the resources you’re requesting.Without proper authentication, the API will reject your calls and return an error.<h2>How to Generate Your API Key</h2>To begin integrating with the Linkkit API, first generate your API key from your Linkkit dashboard.<h3>Steps to Generate an API Key:</h3><ol><li>Log in to your Linkkit account.</li><li>Go to Settings → API Keys.</li><li>Click Generate API Key.</li><li>Copy your key and save it somewhere secure.</li></ol><img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772517628694-hkm9ihsqwa.png"> <img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772517719291-ic8geq2mm.png">Keep your API key private — treat it like a password. Never expose it in client-side JavaScript or public code repositories.<h2>How Authentication Works</h2>Every request to the Linkkit API must contain two required headers:<h3>Required HTTP Headers</h3><pre><code>Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
Content-Type: application/json</code></pre><ul><li>Authorization — Includes “Bearer” followed by your API key.</li><li>Content-Type — Always set to <code>application/json</code> for API requests.</li></ul>If your API key is missing or invalid, the API will return a 401 Unauthorized error.<h3>Example: Authenticate Using cURL</h3>Here’s how to authenticate a simple API request using curl:<pre><code>curl -X GET "https://api.uselinkkit.com/v1/links" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json"</code></pre>Replace <code>YOUR_API_KEY</code> with the key you generated in your Linkkit dashboard.This request fetches all links associated with your account.<h3>Example: Authenticate in JavaScript (Node.js)</h3>Here’s a quick example using Node.js with <code>axios</code>:<pre><code>import axios from "axios";

const apiKey = process.env.LINKKIT_API_KEY;

axios.get("https://api.uselinkkit.com/v1/links", {
 headers: {
 "Authorization": `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
 "Content-Type": "application/json",
 },
})
.then(response =&gt; {
 console.log(response.data);
})
.catch(error =&gt; {
 console.error(error.response.data);
});</code></pre><h2>Authentication Errors</h2>Here are common errors you might encounter:<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 75px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Error Code</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Message</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Meaning</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">401</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Unauthorized</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Missing or incorrect API key</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">403</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Forbidden</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">API key does not have permission</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">429</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Too Many Requests</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Rate limit exceeded</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">500</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Server Error</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Issue on Linkkit side</td></tr></tbody></table>If you receive an error, verify that:<ul><li>You included the <code>Authorization</code> header</li><li>Your API key is correct</li><li>You are calling the correct API version URL</li></ul><h2>Best Practices for Security</h2>To keep your API integration secure and reliable:<h3>Store API Keys Safely</h3><ul><li>Use environment variables in server environments</li><li>Do not expose API keys in frontend code</li></ul><h3>Rotate Keys Periodically</h3><ul><li>Regenerate keys if they are compromised</li><li>Use separate keys for development and production</li></ul><h3>Use HTTPS</h3><ul><li>Always make API calls over HTTPS to encrypt your credentials</li></ul><h3>Limit Access</h3><ul><li>If possible, assign scoped or limited API access based on the environment</li></ul>Following these practices helps maintain the security and integrity of your Linkkit integration.<h2>Summary</h2>To authenticate with the Linkkit API:<ol><li>Generate an API key in your Linkkit dashboard</li><li>Add the key to your request header using the Bearer scheme</li><li>Always use secure HTTPS requests</li><li>Store your API key safely and rotate it when needed</li></ol>With proper authentication, you gain secure, programmatic access to your Linkkit platform for automation, analytics, and customized workflows.

Generate and use API keys for authentication

API Authentication

Webhooks allow Linkkit to send real-time event notifications to your application whenever specific actions occur in your workspace. Instead of constantly polling the API for updates, webhooks push data instantly to your server — making your integrations faster, more efficient, and event-driven. With Linkkit Webhooks, you can automate workflows when links are clicked, created, updated, deleted, or when QR codes are scanned.<h2>What Are Webhooks?</h2>A webhook is an HTTP callback that sends a POST request to a URL you control whenever a selected event happens in Linkkit.For example:<ul><li>A short link is clicked</li><li>A new link is created</li><li>A link is updated</li><li>A link is deleted</li><li>A QR code is scanned</li></ul>When these events occur, Linkkit sends structured JSON data to your webhook endpoint.<h2>Why Use Webhooks?</h2>Webhooks allow you to:<ul><li>Trigger automations in real time</li><li>Update CRM systems instantly</li><li>Send internal notifications when links are clicked</li><li>Sync link data with external dashboards</li><li>Track QR scans automatically</li><li>Trigger marketing workflows</li></ul>They are ideal for SaaS platforms, automation tools, marketing systems, and analytics dashboards.<h2>Setting Up Webhooks in Linkkit</h2>You can configure webhooks directly from your dashboard.<h3>Step 1: Navigate to Webhooks</h3><ol><li>Log in to your Linkkit account</li><li>Go to Settings → Webhooks</li><li>Click Add Endpoint</li></ol>(As shown in your dashboard UI)<img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772516798643-4f0rbaz47li.png"><h3>Step 2: Add a Webhook Endpoint</h3>You’ll need to provide:<ul><li>Endpoint URL – The public URL where Linkkit should send event data</li><li>Events to Subscribe – Select the events you want to receive</li></ul><img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772516830817-lsxbzpth12p.png">After saving, Linkkit will begin sending POST requests to your endpoint whenever selected events occur.<h2>Available Webhook Events</h2>Based on your current system, Linkkit supports the following events:<h3>link.clicked</h3>Triggered when a short link is clicked.<h3>link.created</h3>Triggered when a new link is created.<h3>link.updated</h3>Triggered when an existing link is updated.<h3>link.deleted</h3>Triggered when a link is deleted.<h3>qr.scanned</h3>Triggered when a QR code associated with a link is scanned.You can subscribe to one or multiple events per webhook endpoint.<h2>Webhook Request Format</h2>All webhook events are sent as HTTP POST requests with JSON payloads.<h3>Example Payload (link.clicked)</h3><pre><code>{

Linkkit supports OAuth 2.0, a secure and industry-standard authorisation protocol that lets developers build apps which can access Linkkit user data without exposing user credentials or API keys. OAuth enables third-party applications to request permission, so users can authorise integrations safely and conveniently. This page explains how Linkkit’s OAuth works — from registering your app to implementing the authorisation flow and securely handling tokens.<h2>What Is OAuth?</h2>OAuth (Open Authorisation) allows applications to access user-authorised data without needing to store or manage usernames and passwords.In Linkkit, OAuth enables your app to:<ul><li>Access a user’s links</li><li>Retrieve analytics and campaign data</li><li>Create or update user resources</li><li>Build integrations that act on behalf of a user</li></ul>This approach is safer and more flexible than sharing API keys.<h2>Why Use OAuth with Linkkit?</h2>OAuth is recommended when:<ul><li>You’re building third-party integrations</li><li>Users need to authorise access securely</li><li>You want multi-user application access</li><li>You want to follow modern security standards</li></ul><img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772517054796-4jwtk2ugeqe.png"> OAuth removes the need for users to share their API keys, improving security and user experience — especially for public or marketplace apps.<h2>Registering Your OAuth App</h2>To start, you must register your app in your Linkkit dashboard.<h3>Steps to Register</h3><ol><li>Log in to your Linkkit account</li><li>Navigate to Settings → OAuth Apps</li><li>Click Add New App</li><li>Enter required details:<ul><li>App name</li><li>Redirect URI(s)</li><li>Description (optional)</li><li>Logo (optional)</li></ul></li><li>Submit to save</li></ol>When finished, you will receive:<ul><li>Client ID</li><li>Client Secret</li></ul><img class="max-w-full rounded-lg" src="https://iktbabwehhjebtpddmwa.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/media/uploads/1772517011489-unan71c4t1j.png">These credentials uniquely identify your OAuth application and must be kept confidential.<h2>Authorisation Flow (OAuth 2.0)</h2>Linkkit uses the standard Authorisation Code Grant flow — the most common secure OAuth pattern for server-based apps.<h3>Redirect Users to Authorise</h3>Direct users to Linkkit’s authorisation page:<pre><code>https://api.uselinkkit.com/oauth/authorize?

&amp;client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID

&amp;code=AUTH_CODE

 "access_token": "ACCESS_TOKEN",
 "refresh_token": "REFRESH_TOKEN",
 "expires_in": 3600,
 "scope": "granted scopes"
}</code></pre><ul><li><code>access_token</code> — Used to call the Linkkit API on behalf of the user</li><li><code>refresh_token</code> — Used to refresh the access token when it expires</li></ul><h3>Use the Access Token</h3>With a valid access token, you can make authenticated API requests like:<pre><code>curl -H "Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN" \
"https://api.uselinkkit.com/v1/links"</code></pre>The token gives your app temporary authorised access to the user’s data.<h2>Token Refresh Flow</h2>Access tokens expire regularly. When they do, use the refresh token to obtain a new one.POST<pre><code>https://api.uselinkkit.com/oauth/token</code></pre>Body:<pre><code>grant_type=refresh_token
&amp;refresh_token=REFRESH_TOKEN
&amp;client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID
&amp;client_secret=YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET</code></pre>Response:<pre><code>{
 "access_token": "NEW_ACCESS_TOKEN",
 "expires_in": 3600
}</code></pre>Refresh tokens help maintain long-running sessions safely without asking the user to re-authorise.<h2>Scopes</h2>Scopes define what level of access your app requests.Example scopes might include:<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Scope</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Description</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>links.read</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Read user links</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>links.write</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Create, update, and delete links</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>analytics.read</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Read link analytics</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>segments.read</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Access user segments</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>campaigns.manage</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Manage campaigns</td></tr></tbody></table>Always request the minimum scopes required — it increases user trust and improves authorisation conversion.<h2>Handling OAuth Errors</h2>OAuth endpoints may respond with structured error messages, such as:<pre><code>{
 "error": "invalid_grant",
 "error_description": "code_invalid_or_expired"
}</code></pre>Common errors include:<table class="border-collapse table-auto w-full" style="min-width: 50px;"><colgroup><col style="min-width: 25px;"><col style="min-width: 25px;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Error</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1">Meaning</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>invalid_request</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Required parameter missing</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>invalid_client</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Invalid client ID or secret</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>invalid_grant</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Code rejected or expired</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>unauthorized_client</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">The client is not allowed the requested grant</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><code>invalid_scope</code></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Requested scopes not supported</td></tr></tbody></table>Ensure to handle errors gracefully in your application UI and backend logic.<h2>Security Best Practices</h2>Follow these guidelines to secure your OAuth implementation:<ul><li>Store client secrets securely — never expose them in frontend code</li><li>Use state parameters to prevent CSRF</li><li>Validate redirect URIs</li><li>Protect refresh tokens securely</li><li>Use HTTPS for all OAuth requests</li></ul><h2>Summary</h2>Linkkit’s OAuth system enables secure third-party access using the Authorisation Code flow.

At Linkkit, protecting your account and workspace data is a top priority. The Security settings allow you to manage login protection, monitor active sessions, and maintain strong password security. This guide explains how each security feature works and how to keep your account protected.<h2>Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)</h2>Two-Factor Authentication adds a verification step when signing in to your account.When enabled, 2FA requires:<ul><li>Your password</li><li>A secondary verification code</li></ul>This ensures that even if your password is compromised, unauthorised users cannot access your account.<blockquote>2FA is currently coming soon and will be available in the Security section once released.</blockquote><h3>Why 2FA Matters</h3><ul><li>Protects against password breaches</li><li>Prevents unauthorized logins</li><li>Adds an extra security layer to your workspace</li></ul><h3>Active Sessions Management</h3>The Active Sessions panel allows you to monitor all devices currently logged into your Linkkit account.You can:<ul><li>View your current session</li><li>Identify other logged-in devices</li><li>Sign out of any session instantly</li></ul>If you forget to log out from a shared or public device, you can remotely terminate that session for security.<h3>When to Review Active Sessions</h3><ul><li>After logging in on a new device</li><li>If you suspect unauthorised access</li><li>After using a public or shared computer</li></ul>Managing active sessions is one of the fastest ways to secure your account.<h2>Password Security</h2>Your password is the foundation of account protection.From the Security settings, you can change your password at any time.<h3>How to Strengthen Your Password</h3><ul><li>Use at least 8–12 characters</li><li>Include uppercase and lowercase letters</li><li>Add numbers and symbols</li><li>Avoid reusing passwords from other platforms</li></ul>If you signed in using a third-party authentication provider (such as Google), password updates may be handled by that provider.<h2>Security Best Practices for Your Workspace</h2>To maintain strong data security in Linkkit:<ul><li>Enable Two-Factor Authentication when available</li><li>Regularly review active sessions</li><li>Change your password periodically</li><li>Avoid sharing login credentials</li><li>Remove inactive team members promptly</li></ul>These steps help prevent unauthorised access and keep your workspace secure.<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2><ol><li>Can I see all devices logged into my account? Yes. The Active Sessions section displays signed-in devices currently.</li><li>What happens if I sign out of a session? That device immediately loses access and must log in again.</li><li>Is Two-Factor Authentication mandatory? It is optional (once available), but strongly recommended.</li></ol><h2>Summary</h2>Linkkit’s Security settings give you control over:<ul><li>Account login protection</li><li>Active session management</li><li>Password security</li><li>Future 2FA protection</li></ul>By regularly reviewing your security settings, you ensure your workspace and linked data remain protected.

GDPR and Privacy Compliance

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of protection to your Linkkit account by requiring a second verification step during login. Instead of relying solely on your password, 2FA requires a second confirmation — typically a code from an authenticator app — helping prevent unauthorised access even if your password is compromised. This page explains how 2FA works, why it matters, how to enable it, and best practices to keep your account secure.<h2>What Is Two-Factor Authentication?</h2>Two-Factor Authentication is a security method that combines:<ol><li>Something you know (your password)</li><li>Something you have (a code generated on your phone or device)</li></ol>With 2FA enabled, signing in requires both elements — making unauthorised access significantly more difficult.Unlike password-only logins, 2FA protects against:<ul><li>Keyloggers</li><li>Password breaches</li><li>Shared or reused passwords</li><li>Automated hacking attempts</li></ul><h2>How 2FA Works in Linkkit</h2>When 2FA is enabled:<ol><li>You enter your email and password as usual</li><li>You are prompted for a verification code</li><li>Open your authenticator app to retrieve the code</li><li>Enter the code to complete sign-in</li></ol>Verification codes typically refresh every 30 seconds, ensuring secure, time-based access.<h2>Supported Authentication Methods</h2>Linkkit supports standard Time-Based One-Time Password (TOTP) authenticators, such as:<ul><li>Google Authenticator</li><li>Authy</li><li>Microsoft Authenticator</li><li>1Password / other secure TOTP apps</li></ul>These apps generate unique, short-lived codes linked to your account.<h2>How to Enable Two-Factor Authentication</h2><blockquote>Two-factor authentication is currently rolling out and may be labeled “Coming Soon” in your dashboard. Once enabled, follow the steps below.</blockquote><h3>1. Go to Your Security Settings</h3><ol><li>Open your Linkkit dashboard</li><li>Navigate to Settings → Security</li><li>Locate the Two-Factor Authentication panel</li></ol><h3>2. Click Enable 2FA</h3>Click the Enable 2FA toggle or button to start the setup wizard.<h3>3. Scan the QR Code with Your Authenticator App</h3>Linkkit will display a QR code.<ol><li>Open your authenticator app</li><li>Scan the code</li><li>The app will generate a 6-digit verification code</li></ol>This links your account to the authenticator.<h3>4. Enter the Verification Code</h3>Type the 6-digit code from your authenticator app into the Linkkit prompt.If the code matches, 2FA is successfully activated.<h3>5. Save Backup Codes</h3>Linkkit will provide backup codes — store these securely.Backup codes let you sign in even if you lose access to your authenticator app.<h2>How 2FA Works on Sign-In</h2>Once 2FA is enabled:<ul><li>After entering your email and password, you’ll be prompted for a 6-digit code</li><li>Open your authenticator app to retrieve the current code</li><li>Enter the code to complete the login</li></ul>If you enter an incorrect code, you’ll be prompted to try again.<h2>Backup Codes — What They Are and Why They Matter</h2>When you enable 2FA, Linkkit provides backup codes:<ul><li>One-time use codes</li><li>Stored offline</li><li>Used if you lose access to your authenticator app</li></ul><h3>How to Use Backup Codes</h3>If your device is lost or your authenticator app is unavailable:<ol><li>Attempt login as normal</li><li>When prompted for a verification code, select Use backup code</li><li>Enter one of the backup codes you saved</li></ol>Each backup code can be used only once.<h2>Security Best Practices</h2>To keep your 2FA setup secure:Use a trusted authenticator app (not SMS) Store backup codes in a secure place Do NOT share your verification codes Update your device or app regularly Remove old or unused devices from your account
