The Yoplink API is fully free and available without any registration.
You can use it to create new applications or to complete existing ones. The only limit is your imagination.

On this page you can find the documentation of the 3 main functions of this API which will allow you to create new links, expand existing ones and check if a yoplink user exists or not.

String create ([user],[psswd],[id],[title],url)

This function allows you to create a new Yoplink and returns the produced link.

Parameters

url
The URL to reduce. Must be the last parameter. Otherwise, the other ones will be ignored and added to the URL.
user
The username of the user (optionnal)
psswd
The md5 encrypted password of the user (optionnal)
id
The Adsense ID you want to use. If the Id is specified it overwrites the potential ID of a user (optionnal)
title
The title you want to use for your link (optionnal)

Important notices

  • If the authentication of a specified user fails, the link is created under an anonymous account.
  • The URL must always be the last parameter.
  • If the URL hasn't a valid form, the function will return false.
