High-volume link creation

Create up to 1,000 branded links per second at maximum batch size with the Campaign API. The API is designed for use cases that require large volumes of short-lived links: SMS sends, transactional email, and campaign link generation at scale.

What makes it different

High-volume link creation happens in a dedicated workspace type and behaves differently from standard link creation:

• Dedicated endpoint. Requests go to the Campaign API at https://enterprise-api.rebrandly.com, a high-rate-limit cluster separate from the standard API.
• Batch creation. Use PUT /v1/links to create up to 25 links with different destination URLs in a single request. The standard API has no batch endpoint and creates one link per request.
• Higher throughput. The default rate limit is 40 requests/second, generating up to 1,000 links/second at maximum batch size.
• API-only. Links created through this high-volume API are not listed or searchable in the Rebrandly dashboard. All link operations are done through the API.
• Mandatory TTL. Every link created through this API has an expiration. TTL defaults to 90 days, configurable from 1 hour to 3 months at the workspace level. You can also set TTL per link at creation time. Links are deleted automatically when they expire.

Specifying the workspace

All API requests to a high-volume workspace require the workspace ID as a request header:

• workspace: YOUR_WORKSPACE_ID

If you omit the workspace header, the request defaults to your main workspace. See Get started for more on setting request headers.
