Create redirect links to maintain control over links that are shared in messages and other client-facing resources. Maintain your agency's credibility by always using your official domain. Automatically create links to redirect visitors to external sites.

Why Use Redirect Links?

Redirect links are portal URLs that automatically redirect visitors to a desired third-party website.

Control when visitors are able to visit temporary URLs such as for virtual meeting links.

Improve message credibility and minimize spam filtering by using your official domain in portal and redirect links.

Update the redirect link to change where visitors are redirected without needing to send out new links.

Trash or archive a redirect link to disable visitors from accessing the link.

Prerequisites

Each message can support any number of external links.

Each link in a message will be replaced with a unique redirect link for tracking purposes.
