ShortUrl (Short Url, Tiny Links)

The SharePoint ShortUrl Add-in makes sharing information simple by allowing you to create Short links to any content from within SharePoint!

For example, compare the following hyperlink to a folder in a document library:

https://cirrussoft.sharepoint.com/TestUrl/SharedDocuments/Company Documents/Documents/SharePointShortUrl_APP_About.docx

When you use the SharePoint ShortUrl Add-in it can also be shortened to:

https://surl.link/kWe7fR

SharePoint ShortUrl provides you with a choice of sensible, secure domain names from which to create ShortUrl’s. You are able to define which domain is used as the default within your SharePoint environment and each of these separate domains will also work for any ShortUrl created against the default instance. Thus, you can share any of the domains with your ShortUrl and they will work!

SharePoint ShortUrl Add-in Domains: https://surl.link | https://surl.ms | https://officeurl.com | https://sharepointurl.com

With the SharePoint ShortUrl Add-in you can create ShortUrl’s directly from the Ribbon Menu and/or any List/Library Items Context Menu. If a ShortUrl has already been created, you can instantly copy to the clipboard, email the link directly (the link will be opened in your email client), Share via QR Code and other Social Sharing options. ShortUrl’s are stored in a regular SharePoint List (named ‘ShortUrl’) that is located in each Site that the SharePoint ShortUrl is installed. All ShortUrl’s are processed on our Secure Servers, meaning we handle the resource load externally from SharePoint.
