Information below might be outdated - please visit our recently updated API Reference
The instruction below shows how to add tags to the existing URL.
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 which you want to add a tag.
- Open the statistics of the short link.
- Copy the link ID.
3) Install prerequisites for requests.
pip install requests
npm install --save axios
Now everything is ready to run the following snippet. It will add tags.
4) Create a file: filename.py/ .js/ .rb. Use the code snippet below.
Please, replace LinkId and a tag with appropriate values.
import requests
url = "https://api.short.io/tags"
payload = {"LinkId": 297594333, "tag": "social"}
headers = {
'accept': "application/json",
'content-type': "application/json",
'authorization': "<<apiKey>>"
}
response = requests.request("POST", url, json=payload, headers=headers)
print(response.text)
const axios = require('axios');
const data = {
"LinkId":297594333,
"tag":"social",
};
const options = {
headers: {
'content-type': 'application/json',
authorization: '<<apiKey>>'
}
};
axios.post('https://api.short.io/tags', data, options)
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response.data);
}) .catch(function (response) {
console.log(response);
});
require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
require 'openssl'
require 'json'
url = URI("https://api.short.io/tags")
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["content-type"] = 'application/json'
request["authorization"] = '<<apiKey>>'
request.body = JSON.generate({"LinkId":297594333, "tag": "social"})
response = http.request(request)
puts response.read_body
5) Launch the file.
python filename.py
node filename.js
ruby filename.rb
6) JSON Response (tag is added).
Once you run the code, you will see the response.
