===== SMS URL Shortening =====

When you place the %link% variable within the message body and your scenario uses a public domain name, it will automatically be shortened. The link will look like “http://is.gd/9VjDKF” to fit into one text message. If you use an IP address for your landing page the link will be not shortened. 


===== URL Shortening with landing pages =====

Within the scenario settings you can choose an URL shortening service from the dropdown menu. This only works for domain names (not IP's):

{{ undefined:url_short.png?600 }}

===== URL Shortening and false-positives =====

The URL-shortening services may check the links. As a result, incorrect statistics will be displayed. To avoid this issue, please use [[antivirus_spam_protection_interval_setting|Antivirus/Firewall Protection Interval]], which can be set in the Base settings of the campaign.
