How it works
With our new shortlink service, you can transform long and complicated URLs into short and sleek links directly in your SMS messages. All you need to do is add a parameter to your existing SMS API call:
requests.post(
'https://api.46elks.com/a1/sms',
data={
'from': 'AcmeInc',
'to': '+46700000000',
'message': 'Här är vår inbjudan: https://acmeinc.se/event/kickoff/2025',
'shortlinks': 'default',
}
)
Simple integration
No new integration needed - just add a flag to your existing SMS API call and you're ready to go.
Save on costs
Shorter links mean fewer SMS parts, which means lower costs for your messages.
All in one place
Same reliability and support you're used to from 46elks, with no additional invoices to manage.
Custom domain
Use your own domain for a personal touch to your shortlinks.
Webhooks
Follow up clicks with automated flows
Use everywhere
Use our endpoint /shortlinks to create shortlinks and use them in SMS, email, MMS, and more.
