Developers API
Create your links programmatically

REST Web Services

The URLgenius REST API allows you to query meta-data about your deeplinks. You can view this information both inside your dashboard and from within the API. Creating deeplinks is easy.

Since the API is based on REST principles, it's very easy to write and test applications. You can use your browser to access URLs, and you can use pretty much any HTTP client in any programming language to interact with the API.

API Access

Click here to get your API key. You need to have a Credit Card on file in order to start using it.

We limit the API to 2 requests per second

Versioning

Breaking changes to the API will be rolled out via versions in the URL path.

Current Version: v2

Authentication

Access to the API end points is handled by way of an authorization header. All requests which come into the API must have the appropriate api-key header. Any actions initiated by the API with the account token can affect deep links created via the UI and visa versa.

Include the authorization header "api-key" and set it to your account api key.

Key Value
api-key your_api_key

Base URL

All URLs referenced in the documentation have the following base:

https://api.urlgeni.us/

The URLgenius REST API is served over HTTPS. To ensure data privacy, unencrypted HTTP is not supported.

Create / POST

To create a deeplink, make an HTTP POST request to this end point:

https://api.urlgeni.us/api/v2/links

Required Parameters

Parameter Description
url (Required) The web URL of the resource you wish to deeplink into. Our system will take the URL and automatically create the routes to get mobile users into the applications.
path (Optional) If you wish to customize the path for the link created pass in the path parameter. Do not include /facebook or any other social media type path information. The only part that is customizable is after that part. So if you creating a facebook link and supply path of "city" the full path to access the link would be "facebook/city".
