Delete a Short Link permanently
Remove a destination and permanently disable its generated and custom addresses.
Overview
Short Link deletion is permanent. Its generated key and custom slugs return 410 Gone and remain reserved, so deleting is not a way to release a preferred slug.
Delete after reviewing uses
- Inspect memberships
Check all Link Trees and known campaigns that use the destination.
- Confirm access
You need Short Link editor access and relevant Link Tree editing access when the link is shared in trees.
- Read the confirmation
Delete the intended link and check the result. Replace affected public destinations where needed.
What happens to tree items
An unavailable destination can remain visible to editors for reference while being hidden from the public tree. Removing that tree item is a separate cleanup action.
Availability and access
Availability depends on your organization access and assigned permissions.
