Domain Statistics

📘 Information below might be outdated - please visit our recently updated API Reference

The instruction below shows how to get detailed statistics for a domain.

1) Get your API key here: https://app.short.io/settings/integrations/api-key

Click "Create API key".
Add a Secret key.

2) Copy an ID of a domain you want to get detailed statistics of.

Open domain settings.
Copy the domain ID.

3) Install prerequisites for requests.

Python
Node.js

pip install requests

// No additional dependencies required (uses native fetch)

Now everything is ready to run the following snippet. It will send detailed statistics of a domain.

4) Create a file: filename.py/ .js/ .rb. Use the code snippet below.

📘

Please, replace domainID and Period with appropriate values.

👍

Available periods for statistics: today, yesterday, total, week, month, lastmonth, last7, last30 and custom.

Python
Node.js
Ruby

import requests

url = "https://api-v2.short.io/statistics/domain/domainID"

querystring = {"period":"today","tzOffset":"0"}

headers = {
    'accept': "*/*",
    'authorization': "<<apiKey>>"
    }

response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers, params=querystring)

print(response.text)

const url = "https://api-v2.short.io/statistics/domain/domainID?period=today&tzOffset=0";
const options = {
  method: "GET",
  headers: {
    accept: "*/*",
    authorization: "<<apiKey>>"
  }
};

const response = await fetch(url, options);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
require 'openssl'

url = URI("https://api-v2.short.io/statistics/domain/domainID?period=today&tzOffset=0")

http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url)
request["accept"] = '*/*'
request["authorization"] = '<<apiKey>>'

response = http.request(request)
puts response.read_body

5) Launch the file.

Python
Node.js
Ruby

python filename.py

node filename.js

ruby filename.rb

6) JSON Response.

Once you run the code, you will see the response.

7) How to request statistics for a custom period

🚧

startDate and endDate parameters require date format in milliseconds from epoch.
Here you can convert your date: https://www.epochconverter.com/

pip install arrow

Python
Node.js
Ruby

import requests
import arrow

url = "https://api-v2.short.cm/statistics/domain/domainID"

querystring = {"period":"custom","tzOffset":"0", "startDate": arrow.get('2020-05-01T21:23:58.970460+07:00').timestamp * 1000,"endDate": arrow.get('2020-05-04T21:23:58.970460+07:00').timestamp * 1000}

headers = {
    'accept': "*/*",
    'authorization': "<<apiKey>>"
    }

response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers, params=querystring)

print(response.text)

const startDate = new Date("2020-04-30T15:56:53").valueOf();
const endDate = new Date("2020-05-05T15:56:53").valueOf();
const url = `https://api-v2.short.cm/statistics/domain/domainID?period=custom&tzOffset=0&startDate=${startDate}&endDate=${endDate}`;
const options = {
  method: "GET",
  headers: {
    accept: "*/*",
    authorization: "<<apiKey>>"
  }
};

const response = await fetch(url, options);
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
require 'openssl'

url = URI("https://api-v2.short.cm/statistics/domain/domainID?period=custom&tzOffset=0&startDate=1588231150000&endDate=1588663150000")

http = Net::HTTP.new(url.host, url.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE

request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(url)
request["accept"] = '*/*'
request["authorization"] = '<<apiKey>>'

response = http.request(request)
