A clean REST API with bearer auth and JSON — create, edit, list and track branded links and dynamic QR in code. Included from the Pro plan.
Everything you do in the console, you can do in code. Mint an API key, call a simple REST endpoint with a bearer token, and create, re-point, list, tag and measure links and QR at scale — wired into your own systems, CI or automations.
Generate an API key in the console under API Keys (Pro plan and above).
Send a bearer-authenticated request to api.xengo.io — plain REST and JSON.
Create, re-point, tag and track links and QR in bulk from your own code or tools.
Create branded links on your own domain, re-point them, tag them and delete them — the same operations you run in the console, over a clean REST API.
Spin up thousands of links in a single call, or wire link creation into your CRM, CI or campaign tooling. The API is the console — scriptable.
