Link Group Delete API
Delete link groups that are no longer needed.
Links within the group are not deleted and remain active, making it safe to clean up your structure without affecting existing short links.

When to Use This API
Use this API to clean up link groups that are no longer in use.
Remove completed campaign groups or delete temporary groups created during development and testing.
It’s also useful when restructuring your group setup.
Only the group is removed while all short links remain active and unaffected.
Difference between group deletion and link deletion
The Link Delete API removes the link itself, making the short URL inaccessible.
In contrast, the Link Group Delete API removes only the group structure while keeping all links active.
Use the Link Delete API to permanently remove link data, and the Link Group Delete API to clean up your structure without affecting existing links.
Deletion behavior
This API does not delete link data but removes the group structure.
- Only the group is deleted
- Links within the group remain unchanged
- Links become ungrouped
Core functionality such as redirection and analytics tracking remains unaffected.
However, shared group-level settings such as expiration, passwords, and webhooks are removed.
Things to consider
- Deleted groups cannot be restored. Verify
grpIdxbefore deletion - Links within the group are not deleted
- All group-level settings will be removed
- If active links rely on group settings, their behavior may change
Apply required settings to individual links before deleting the group.
