LootLabs Redirect API

The LootLabs Redirect API Allows users to redirect already created links into other destination URLs generated by using your API-key.

Note: If you don't have an API-key already learn how to create one by clicking here

Loot Labs Redirect API

The LootLabs Redirect API Allows the use of &data parameter in order to redirect the final destination link to a different link using AES-256 cipher encryption enabled by the Lootlabs API key.

For example this wrapped link directs to Google.com - https://loot-link.com/s?qo0f
Using the &data parameter I can use my encrypted string which I got from the API 8XbVczTDSA%2FD3gX4%2BqLGnw%3D%3D to get redirected to bbc.com using the same link instead of getting redirected to the original destination link.

https://loot-link.com/s?qo0f&data=8XbVczTDSA%2FD3gX4%2BqLGnw%3D%3D

As you can see the addition of &data= using the encrypted link 8XbVczTDSA%2FD3gX4%2BqLGnw%3D%3D redirects you to the new target (bbc.com).

Note: The use of API for encryption is optional as we also provided the Logic for server side encryption for developers if requested, feel free to contact support for more information.

const url = 'https://be.lootlabs.gg/api/lootlabs/url_encryptor';

// Replace 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' with your actual API token
const headers = {
    Authorization: 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
};


const data = {
    destination_url: 'https://google.com'
};

// Send POST request
axios.post(url, data, { headers: headers })
    .then(response => {
        console.log(response.data);
    })
    .catch(error => {

const url = `https://be.lootlabs.gg/api/lootlabs/url_encryptor?destination_url=${encodeURIComponent(destination_url)}&api_token=${api_token}`;

// Send GET request
axios.get(url)
    .then(response => {
        console.log(response.data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error('Error:', error);
    });
