Overview
Rebrandly is a premium URL shortener API focused on creating branded short links using your own custom domain. It uses an API key for authentication and provides full link management features including custom aliases, tracking, and team workspaces. Rebrandly is ideal for businesses and developers who want branded, trackable links instead of generic short URLs.
Beginner Tip
Register for a Rebrandly account and get an API key from your dashboard: include it as the "apikey" request header. Start by creating a link with just the destination URL; custom domain and alias are optional.
