Which domain does a new alias land on if nobody names one?

Short.fyi, the platform default. Create Alias attaches the alias to Short.fyi when no domain is specified, and Delete Alias searches Short.fyi the same way, so name your own domain explicitly whenever the link is customer-facing.

How complete is the click data Lyro can read?

Get click data for aliases returns click records that may cover a limited window or subset rather than a full per-click log, and comes back empty when a link has had no clicks yet. Use it to answer whether a link is getting traffic, not as the source of record for campaign reporting.

What is the risk in updating an alias that already exists?

Array properties are replaced wholesale. Update Alias overwrites the entire destinations array with whatever you pass, so any destination left out is dropped - read the alias first and resend the full set even when you only mean to change one entry.

How is this different from a link-shortening step in Zapier or Make?

A Zap fires one preset action when a trigger matches. Lyro chooses during the conversation which calls to make - creating an alias, checking its clicks, changing the destination, deleting it - and can chain several in one exchange, so a link is generated and reported on in the same reply.

How businesses use Shorten rest + Lyro

Each card is one request a support team gets, and the Shorten rest actions Lyro runs to close it.

Hand over a working short link mid-conversation
Lyro creates the alias on the domain you name, overriding that domain's meta tags or tracking snippet when a campaign needs different ones, and edits the destination later instead of minting a second link.
Create AliasUpdate Alias
Say whether a link is actually getting traffic
Lyro reads the click records for an alias alongside the account's full alias list, so a question about a link's performance is answered without anyone exporting a report.
Get Click Data For AliasesGet Aliases
Audit one domain and retire dead aliases
Lyro lists the alias names attached to a single domain, newest first, and deletes the ones pointing at a destination that no longer exists.

How it works

Get started in 3 steps

Connect once, then just ask. There is no workflow builder to learn and nothing to maintain — Lyro reads the Shorten rest actions it has and picks the ones a request needs.

01
Connect Shorten rest
Authorize the Shorten rest account your team already uses — one consent screen, no API keys, no mapping tables. Lyro can only do what you granted that account, and you can disconnect it at any time.
02
Tell your agent what you need
Describe the job the way you would hand it to a teammate. Lyro maps it to the Shorten rest actions that close it and chains as many as the request needs.
03
Watch it work
The agent runs the actions inside the conversation the customer is already in, so nobody copies data between tabs and your team can take over at any point.
