When you receive an invitation to join your company's BL.INK account, it means you can now create shortened links and QR codes more efficiently.
Before diving into link creation or exploring the platform, let's ensure your account is set up correctly and review the available account information.
Accessing Your Account Settings
To check your account details:
- Click on your name in the upper-right corner of the page.
- Select My Account from the dropdown menu.
Account Information
On the My Account page, you will see the following details:
- Profile Photo: Update your photo as needed.
- Name & Email: Ensure your name and email are correct.
- Time Zone: Make sure your time zone is accurate. This setting affects the visibility of your link analytics and tracking.
- API Refresh Token: Users with the appropriate access can generate a refresh token for API usage.
- Links & Tags: Below your profile photo, you will see the number of links and tags created under your account.
After reviewing or making any necessary changes, click Save and Continue to apply updates.
Domain Information
The next section to review is Domain Information, which displays:
- The domains you have access to.
- Your role within each domain.
- The number of links associated with each domain.
- The groups you are part of.
- The number of tags available in each domain.
To enhance your experience, BL.INK allows you to set up default actions within your assigned domains.
Setting Up Default Actions
You can configure default settings for link creation to streamline your workflow:
- Redirect Type: Set a default redirect type (301 or 307). When creating a link, this redirect type will automatically apply.
- QR Template: Select a default QR template for your links. All links you create will automatically use this template, eliminating the need to select it manually.
- Groups: Choose the default group where your links will be added. Users within this group will have access to the links for collaboration. Ensure an admin grants you access to the necessary group.
- Email Notifications: Choose how frequently you receive email notifications about your links (daily or weekly).
By setting up these preferences, you can optimize your workflow and make link creation smoother.
Once you have configured your settings, you are ready to start using BL.INK efficiently!
