For Agents
Programmatically get_expand, adds an inventory item. Covers 3 operations.
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Shortener Links API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Shortener Links API.
get_expand
adds an inventory item
searches inventory
GET STARTED
Use for: I need to get_expand, I want to adds an inventory item, Search for searches inventory, I need to access Shortener Links API programmatically
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for developer tools only.
This is a simple API. The API exposes 3 endpoints.
Patterns agents use Shortener Links API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Developer Tools Operations
Use the Shortener Links API to perform developer tools operations programmatically. The API provides 3 endpoints covering core functionality including get_expand, adds an inventory item, searches inventory.
Call GET /expand to get_expand
Automated admins Management
Automate admins operations by combining multiple Shortener Links API endpoints. Agents can adds an inventory item and then searches inventory in a single workflow.
Call POST /inventory to adds an inventory item, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Shortener Links API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle none tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'get_expand', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials
3 endpoints — this is a simple api.

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Shortener Links API none credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'get_expand') and Jentic returns the matching Shortener Links API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Shortener Links API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using Shortener Links API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Shortener Links API use?
The Shortener Links API uses no authentication. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I get_expand with the Shortener Links API?
Yes. Use the GET /expand endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Shortener Links API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I get_expand through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'get_expand'. Jentic returns the matching Shortener Links API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Shortener Links API have?
The Shortener Links API exposes 3 endpoints covering admins, developers, admin operations operations.
