Customizable Short URLs: Create branded or custom-slug short links.
Highly Scalable: Supports up to 100 API calls per second, perfect for high-demand environments.

This API Playground for our URL shortener enables you to interact with the API directly from your browser. Whether you're a developer aiming to integrate URL shortening into your application or simply exploring its functionality, the playground offers a hands-on experience to send real API requests and view responses instantly.
By default, the demo environment allows access to the aws3-demo.link domain. If you're already subscribed, you can pass your API key to access additional public domains such as aws3.link, azr.link, goog.link, and an.si, or even integrate your own custom domain with our shortener service.
Experiment with various parameters and explore how the API responds to different scenarios!
