  2. Check Original URLsCheck each original URL for a complete destination and tracking parameters. Keep it for comparison.
  3. Create Short LinksOpen eligible posts in the composer. Use the channel's link shortening control on finished URLs.
  4. Verify DestinationsOpen each short link and compare its destination with the original URL. Flag mismatches for review.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Shorten Tracking Links:

What do I need to set up before it runs?

Choose your channels, enable their built-in link shortening, and set a check interval before posts publish. Ask authors to add final tracking URLs first.

What if a short link opens the wrong page?

Your publisher sees a link-review tag on the queued post. The original tracking URL stays in place for correction.

Will this change a post's publishing time?

No. Your scheduled time stays the same when a verified short link replaces a tracking URL. Published or uneditable posts stay unchanged.

What happens when the Agent is unsure?

It stops and asks you. The Agent does not guess when it reaches a decision you have not approved.

Can I review its work?

Yes. Every run creates a plain-language log that you can review and export. Logs are kept for twelve months.

What happens if I cancel?

The Agent stops at the end of the billing month and its tool connections are removed. Your run logs remain available for twelve months.
