TinyURL

Overview

TinyURL provides URL shortening — token-based (POST; a GET returns 501, verified).

Quick Start

Create (POST, replace YOUR_TOKEN):

curl -X POST "https://api.tinyurl.com/create" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url":"https://example.com"}'

{ "data": { "command": "create" }, "code": 2, "errors": ["Not implemented."] }

Authentication

• tinyurl.com app → API token.
• Send it as Authorization: Bearer (verified: GET → 501).

Rate Limits & Notes
