URL Shortener has been a great tool that we're proud to have built. However, existing short links will not be migrated to the Firebase console/API. For developers looking to migrate to FDL see our migration guide.Īs it is for consumers, all links will continue to redirect to the intended destination after March 30, 2019. If you are already calling URL Shortener APIs to manage goo.gl short links, you can continue to use them for a period of one year, until March 30, 2019, when we will discontinue the APIs. FDL short links will automatically detect the user's platform and send the user to either the web or your app, as appropriate. To create new short links, we recommend FDL APIs. Starting May 30, 2018, only projects that have accessed URL Shortener APIs before today can create short links. Your existing short links will not be migrated to the Firebase console, however, you will be able to export your link information from the goo.gl console. You can manage all your short links and their analytics through the goo.gl console during this period.Īfter March 30, 2019, all links will continue to redirect to the intended destination. If you have existing goo.gl short links, you can continue to use all features of goo.gl console for a period of one year, until March 30, 2019, when we will discontinue the console. If you are looking to create new short links, we recommend you check out popular services like Bitly and Ow.ly as an alternative. Starting April 13, 2018, anonymous users and users who have never created short links before today will not be able to create new short links via the goo.gl console. While most features of goo.gl will eventually sunset, all existing links will continue to redirect to the intended destination. We're excited to grow and improve the product going forward. FDLs are smart URLs that allow you to send existing and potential users to any location within an iOS, Android or web app. To refocus our efforts, we're turning down support for goo.gl over the coming weeks and replacing it with Firebase Dynamic Links (FDL). Since then, many popular URL shortening services have emerged and the ways people find content on the Internet have also changed dramatically, from primarily desktop webpages to apps, mobile devices, home assistants, and more. We launched the Google URL Shortener back in 2009 as a way to help people more easily share links and measure traffic online. Posted by Michael Hermanto, Software Engineer, Firebase
