Short links: It creates short URLs on sndx.in and supports optional custom slugs and verified custom domains.
Analytics: The API reports total and unique clicks, conversions, countries, devices, referrers, and timeseries.
UTM tagging: Links can include UTM source, medium, campaign, term, and content parameters.
Access controls: Links can be password-protected, given an expiry timestamp, or capped at a maximum number of clicks.
Webhooks: ExaLink supports real-time exalink.click and exalink.converted webhook events.
Performance and limits: The overview states a p95 edge redirect latency below 50 ms, analytics visibility of about one second, and a rate limit of 100 requests per second per API key.
Authentication: ExaLink REST requests use HTTP Basic Auth with a Base64 token from the Sendexa dashboard.
Security: Sendexa says API connections require HTTPS and recommends verifying webhook signatures with HMAC-SHA256.
