Using Linkly with ChatGPT
Create short links and QR codes directly in ChatGPT using the official Linkly GPT.
Get Started
Simply open the GPT and start chatting. You can ask it to:
- Shorten URLs - "Shorten this URL: example.com/my-long-page"
- Create QR codes - "Make a QR code for my website"
- Track clicks - "How many clicks did my last link get?"
- Manage links - "List my recent links"
Requirements
- A ChatGPT Plus subscription (the GPT uses Actions which require a paid plan)
- A Linkly account - sign up free
First Time Setup
When you first use the GPT, it will ask you to connect your Linkly account. Click "Sign in" and authorize access. That's it - you're ready to go.
