Official Chrome extension

Create li-nk.me short links without leaving the page

The li-nk.me Chrome extension is the fastest way to turn the current tab or any pasted URL into a shareable short link. It is built for teams that already use li-nk.me in the portal and want a lighter workflow for campaigns, support, content, and day-to-day sharing.

Published in the Chrome Web Store and ready to use with your existing App ID and API key.

Shorten the page you are on

Grab the current tab instantly, create a short URL, and copy it without bouncing back to the portal.

Use custom slugs when you need them

Drop in a readable ending for campaign links, social posts, demos, or support replies.

Keep using your existing app setup

The extension uses your li-nk.me App ID and API key, so new links land in the same app and workflow you already manage.

How it fits into your workflow

Use the extension when you want the speed of a browser action with the control of your existing li-nk.me setup. Content teams can shorten blog posts and landing pages as they review them. Growth teams can create campaign links while checking creative and UTMs. Support and success teams can generate clean links while replying to customers.

Because the extension creates links through your li-nk.me app credentials, every new short URL stays inside the same account, analytics, and management flow you already use in the portal.

Setup in four quick steps

  1. Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store.
  2. Open the popup settings and enter your li-nk.me App ID plus a write-capable API key.
  3. Use the current tab or paste any destination URL, then optionally set a custom slug.
  4. Create the short link and copy or open the result immediately.

Credential and rollout checklist

Treat the extension API key like any other write credential. Create a key for the intended app, share it only with approved team members, and revoke it when a device or role changes.

  • Install only the official Chrome Web Store listing linked from this page.
  • Create one test link and confirm it appears under the expected app before wider rollout.
  • Open the short URL, verify its destination, and check click analytics before using it in a campaign.
