This n8n workflow automates the process of shortening a URL and then retrieving its click statistics, creating a streamlined way to manage and analyze links. Starting with a manual trigger, the workflow first uses the YOURLS API to generate a shortened URL for a specified link, such as a Medium article on sending SMS via Airtable and Twilio. Once the URL is shortened, the workflow immediately fetches the click statistics for that particular link, providing insights into its performance. This workflow can be useful for marketers, content creators, or social media managers who want to efficiently generate shareable, trackable links without manually interacting with the URL shortening service or checking stats. It simplifies link management, improves tracking, and enhances campaign analysis by automating the entire process under a single trigger.
