Folders
FreeAvailable on all plans
What are Folders?
Folders let you group related short links together in your dashboard, making it easy to find, filter, and manage large collections of links. You might create a folder per campaign, per client, per social platform, or per month. Folders are purely organisational — they do not affect how links redirect or what analytics they collect.
Requirements
Folders are available on all plans including Free. Free accounts can create up to 5 folders; Pro and Builder accounts have no folder limit. Each link can belong to one folder at a time.
Step-by-step: Create and use folders
- In your Dashboard, click the Folders icon in the left sidebar (or tap the folder icon on mobile).
- Click New Folder, type a folder name, and press Enter or click Save. Folder names can be up to 50 characters.
- To add a link to a folder, open the link's detail panel and use the Folder dropdown to assign it. You can also assign a folder when creating a new link via the Folder field in the Create Link form.
- To view all links in a folder, click the folder name in the sidebar. The dashboard filters to show only links in that folder.
- To rename a folder, right-click (or long-press on mobile) the folder name and choose Rename.
- To delete a folder, right-click and choose Delete. Links inside the folder are not deleted — they become unorganised and appear in the "All Links" view.

Common questions
Can I move multiple links to a folder at once?
Yes. Select multiple links using the checkboxes in the dashboard, then use the Move to Folder bulk action that appears in the toolbar. This applies the folder assignment to all selected links in one step.
Can I filter analytics by folder?
Currently analytics are per-link, not per-folder. You can view individual link analytics from within the folder view. Folder-level aggregate analytics is planned for a future release.
Can I create folders via the API?
Yes. Use POST /api/folders to create a folder and pass the folderId field when creating or updating links to assign them.
What happens to links if I delete their folder?
The links are not deleted — they are moved to the unorganised "All Links" view. You can reassign them to a new folder at any time.
