Leave the domain blank to list aliases on the default short.fyi domain. - Action **Short Link** Creates a short link (alias) that redirects to a destination URL, optionally on your own domain with a custom alias. - Action **Update alias** Updates a short link's destinations, meta tags or tracking snippets.

Reviews ## What our customers say Questions ## Shorten.REST, answered ### ### Is there a Shorten.REST MCP server? APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Shorten.REST. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run Shorten.REST actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use Shorten.REST. Nothing to install. ### ### What can your agent do in Shorten.REST? Any of Shorten.REST's 5 actions, including Update alias, Get alias, List aliases and Short Link. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can I use Shorten.REST directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor? Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Shorten.REST two ways. Ask it to do something in Shorten.REST once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does. ### ### Do I need to write code against the Shorten.REST API? No. APIANT connects to the Shorten.REST API for you, with your Shorten.REST API key. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Shorten.REST triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Shorten.REST API documentation and adds it. ### ### Which apps can Shorten.REST connect to? Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Shorten.REST with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
