Telegfy

Campaigns and links

In Telegfy a campaign is a short link. You put it into an ad, and the clicks on it go into your statistics. In the UI the section is called “My Links” (/dashboard/links).

One link is one ad campaign or one creative. That makes results easy to compare. Breakdowns by sub_id give you the detail inside a link.

Section titled “Create a link”

Open “My Links” and click “Create Link”. Only the destination URL is required. Everything else is in “Advanced options”.

Field What it does
Destination URL Where the click goes if no rule matches.
Traffic source For outgoing postbacks. Visible when the workspace has active sources.
Domain A custom domain or “Default” (the service domain). Custom domains need Pro.
Custom alias A short code instead of a random one. 3 to 50 characters: Latin letters, digits, - and _.
Title and tags For your convenience in the list.
Expires on The date after which the link stops working.
Max clicks After this many clicks the link stops working.
Forward query parameters All parameters of the click are passed to the destination URL. Pro only.
UTM parameters Added to the destination URL. Pro only.
Retargeting pixels Pixels on the redirect page. Pro only.
Create link dialog with advanced options open: traffic source, domain, custom alias and expiry date
  1. Traffic source: the “Traffic source” field (#modal-traffic-source) is shown when the workspace has active sources.
  2. Domain: “Default” or your own domain (Pro).
  3. Custom alias: up to 50 characters.
  4. Expires on: the date the link stops working.

Expiry

Section titled “Expiry”
  • Free — if you do not set a date, the link lives for 30 days.
  • Pro and Enterprise — no expiry unless you set one.

For an ad campaign that runs for months, set an expiry date explicitly or move to Pro.

Section titled “Sub_id: labels in the link”

Labels from the ad are passed to the link as sub_id_1 … sub_id_30. Any utm_* parameter is kept as well. For example:

https://<domain>/<code>?sub_id_1={ad_id}&sub_id_2={campaign_id}&sub_id_3={placement}

The values such as {ad_id} are filled in by the ad platform. Platforms may call their parameters by other names, so check their documentation. Examples per platform are in the guides.

In reports, group by the “Sub ID” level with the parameter name, for example sub_id_1.

Section titled “Macros in the link’s URL”

Macros {{...}} in the destination URL of the link itself are a Pro feature. Macros in an offer URL do not depend on the plan. So it is better to set an offer that uses macros in a rule, not in the link’s destination URL.

Edit and turn off

Section titled “Edit and turn off”
List of links: a link row with its short address and the actions menu
  1. The link row: short address, statistics, status.
  2. The “…” menu: open, analytics, routing rules, edit, delete.
  • “…” menu → “Edit”. Here you change the destination URL, the traffic source, the expiry and the parameters.
  • Turn a link off with the “Active” switch. An inactive link does not open.
  • “Delete” deactivates the link: visiting it stops working.

Limits

Section titled “Limits”
Plan Active links Collections
Free 20 3
Pro 500 50
Enterprise No limit No limit

Collections are groups of links. A conversion goal can be limited to a collection.
