Introduction
Get started with the Weely API and developer tools.
The Weely API
Weely is a link management platform. Use the developer surface to create and manage short links, read analytics, and run the same workflows from AI agents over MCP.
Start with Authentication. MCP lives at
https://dev.weely.ai/api/v1/mcp. Interactive REST docs: Swagger at/docs/api/v1.
What you can do
| Capability | Status | What it's for |
|---|---|---|
| MCP (AI agents) | Available | https://dev.weely.ai/api/v1/mcp — Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, etc. |
| REST API | Available | https://dev.weely.ai/api/v1/... (proxied to the Weely API) |
| API keys | Coming soon | Script and server access without a browser sign-in |
What you need
- A Weely account
- Familiarity with short links and custom domains (same behavior as in the product)
- Auth set up — see Authentication
Shorten your first link
- Get an access token via Authentication.
- Create a short link:
POST https://dev.weely.ai/api/v1/short-url/create-shorten-url
{
"longUrl": "https://weely.ai/",
"title": "Weely Developer"
}Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKENA successful response returns the shortened link.
- Explore more endpoints in the API Reference (Swagger:
