Documentation

Launch, route, and report on agency campaigns.

A practical product guide for setting up measurable links, offline QR placements, routing rules, branded domains, and privacy-safe analytics.

Quick start

  1. 01Create the workspace and keep one client or brand per organized folder strategy.
  2. 02Confirm destination URLs, CTA destination, UTM naming, and domain ownership.
  3. 03Launch a standard link or a Pro QR/routing campaign and test every destination.
  4. 04Review analytics quality signals before exporting client reporting.

Dynamic QR campaigns

Pro QR campaigns encode a stable tracking route, so printed placements remain manageable.

  • +Choose an existing short link and name the offline placement, such as event booth or packaging.
  • +Apply expiry, password, color, theme, or logo branding when the campaign requires it.
  • +Download the asset and monitor scans by device, geography, traffic quality, and campaign.

Smart routing

Pro routing rules are evaluated in order; the link destination remains the fallback.

  • +Define rule destinations only for public, approved campaign URLs.
  • +Add conditions for device, OS, country, language, referrer, UTM, visitor, bot, or schedule.
  • +Use the route test workflow before enabling rules on a live campaign.

Analytics and reporting

Measure campaign response while keeping behavior analytics privacy-safe.

  • +Start with clicks, unique visitors, top links, QR scans, and traffic quality context.
  • +Pro views add acquisition, funnel, geography, behavior aggregates, and quality signals.
  • +Filter by link, domain, folder, tag, or campaign and export approved reporting datasets.

Conversions API

Use server API keys for verified conversion events, purchases, and downstream ad platform delivery.

  • +Create an API key in Dashboard > Conversions > API Keys and store the full token in server secrets.
  • +Send authenticated events to POST /api/v1/conversions with Authorization: Bearer lf_live_...
  • +Include a stable externalEventId for deduplication and pass lfclid when the conversion can be attributed to a LinkForge visit.

Custom domains

A branded domain establishes client trust and requires careful DNS ownership.

  • +Pro workspaces add a domain and receive the required CNAME target.
  • +Publish the DNS record, refresh verification, and confirm SSL status before use.
  • +A domain in use is protected from unsafe disable actions until links are moved.

Review DNS, destination safety, plan access, and analytics attribution before publishing.
