Developer Section
Note: The documentation here applies to both cntp.me and is.gd, they use the same API and you can support either just by changing the domain.
Our URL shorteners provide an API so that other applications can harness our service. If you're interested in using one of them in your application, the best place to start is to check out our URL shortening API reference.
There's an assortment of other helpful links below. If you decide to write something that would be useful to developers such as a tutorial or a library for a programming language we haven't covered, please let us know and we'll add it to our list.
